I have an extensive social work and psychotherapy experience working with adults, adolescents and children in individual and group settings. In my practice, I utilize a wide range of therapeutic tools stemming from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Play and Art Therapies.

I provide support for adults and children experiencing anxiety, stress, trauma, depression, distress over relationships or even world events. Prioritizing emotional wellness optimizes the health of the body, mind and soul for all ages. Emotional growth and healing is a process I've learned to trust through experience, ongoing study, and by being my own work in progress. I would love to help you learn to trust it, too. Mine is a creative approach, one that reaches places you cannot always find the words for. The process of your life unfolding will come with clarity, confidence, and grace.

When you can't find the words to express your thoughts and emotions, let your creativity help you. Art Therapy is a non verbal and safe means to express your feelings and fears. As an Art Therapist, I can help you gain insight and help resolve interpersonal and emotional conflicts. Through Art Therapy I can manage behaviors, addictions, reduce stress and anxiety, increase self esteem and restore a sense of personal well being. I will help you to navigate your emotions and fears. Together we can overcome obstacles through verbal and non verbal techniques.

Currently on maternity leave until September 2023. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with training and expertise in both Cognitive Behavior Therapy as well as psychodynamic treatment. I work with young adults and adults and have expertise treating patients with depression, anxiety, PTSD, compulsive and addictive behaviors. I have specialized training in various evidence based treatments for trauma such as Prolonged Exposure (PE) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT).

I warmly welcome individuals seeking culturally inclusive, strengths-based therapy. Whether it's depression, anxiety, trauma, or life transitions, I'm here to empower your healing journey. As a first-generation American, I understand how culture, family dynamics, and intergenerational factors impact stress. Growing up in a family shaped by the Cambodian genocide's trauma, I deeply grasp culture, identity, and mental health's intricate interplay. My experiences fuel my dedication to helping individuals navigate trauma, acculturation, and resilience.

Seeking help is hard. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has practiced for decades focusing on assisting Individuals of teenagers, adults, couples and families. I utilize insight oriented and cognitive behavioral techniques, psycho-education, as well as many other therapeutic concepts to promote a supportive atmosphere so that my clients gain acceptance and control over their issues. People are not the same, neither is their treatment. When facing hard times, it's a good idea to ask for help.

The goal in therapy is to become the best version of yourself. My clinical specialties include working with adult and older adult clients with anxiety, depression, intergenerational trauma, grief and loss, anger and stress management, relationship stress, and support for caregivers of loved ones with dementia. Our mind and body have a fascinating connection, and we would explore methods of healing from a number of techniques that pull from Western and Eastern medicine. Additionally, I am passionate about exploring and treating unique stressors associated with late-life to promote positive aging in our community.

Life can feel overwhelming at times. Some might find it difficult to find the emotional courage to seek psychotherapy when you are already dealing with a quagmire of complex competing loyalties, identities, and personal and political conflicts. Whether you are dealing with the stress of racial identity, cultural integration, concerns related to fertility, substance abuse, or transitions throughout the life cycle, this process does not have to be an isolative experience. Carrying around those frustrations with nowhere to process them can further exacerbate difficulties in daily activities.

My ideal client is trying to understand not only the root causes that created a less than optimal life functioning emotionally, socially, occupationally, academically, or intrafamilially, but the actual cognitive behavioral steps to remedy the problem. I believe most problems we encounter in our everyday lives can be improved upon and transformed into a life we have chosen.

I work with adults, young adults and teens, who are struggling to understand themselves and struggling to understand “why,” they might be experiencing difficult emotions and situations. These clients might sometimes feel confused, ashamed or disappointed in themselves; may feel frustrated, guilty or disconnected within their relationships; or, notice they have been feeling lonely, overwhelmed, defensive and maybe "not good enough." I work with clients who are seeking progressive growth, looking for lifelong changes, and want to learn how to love the unique, imperfect parts of themselves.

“In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth or step back into safety” (Maslow). Moving through the stages of life doesn’t always go as we expect.
