| 中文 Have you ever felt stuck in life, unsure how to start making changes? Changes can be uncomfortable and even intimidating—but you don’t have to face it alone. I am here to accompany individuals like you move past obstacles and embrace changes at your own pace. Together, we’ll explore how personal and sociocultural factors shape your lived experiences, deepening your awareness and then cultivating self-compassion, clarity, and motivation. With this foundation, meaningful change becomes possible. My approach is warm, culturally sensitive, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices, tailored to honor your unique journey.
I help individuals with anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, trauma, and life or relationship stress. I am deeply committed to decolonizing mental health and supporting marginalized communities and work closely with ethnic/racial minorities, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ individuals. I also offer gender-affirming therapy to trans and gender diverse individuals.
Do you want to understand yourself better, be kinder to yourself, feel more motivated, or have deeper connection with others? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, take a moment to appreciate your desire to grow—and consider scheduling a free consultation with me to start your journey.
