I am a clinical psychologist specializing in trauma, depression, anxiety, and OCD using EMDR, CPT, CBT, ERP, and other evidence-based treatments. As an Asian-American child of immigrants, I take special care to thoroughly explore ways in which your childhood, upbringing, family of origin, and culture contribute to your mental health. I believe that each individual is unique, so your therapy journey also has to be tailored to you. Whether you are struggling with lifelong mental health difficulties or don't even know where to start, I will work with you as a guide and collaborator to help you get to where you want to be.
My approach follows a person-centered multicultural perspective to support and empower you on this journey. Everyone has the right to happiness and fulfillment. We just sometimes need some support, encouragement, and accountability to reach our goals. If you're feeling stuck, or have not found success with prior therapy, you're not alone.
My approach focus on getting to the roots of the problem and enact real lasting change, not just temporary relief. If you're ready to take action towards the future that you envision, reach out for a free consultation or visit my website. Even if we're not a good fit at this time, you've taken the first step towards becoming your true self.

I focus on adults struggling with depression, anxiety, OCD, and trauma. I am passionate about treating the whole individual, not just your "symptoms" by incorporating culture, identity, upbringing, and other past experiences. I work to treat the root causes of your distress, not just apply a bandaid. My patients graduate from therapy within 1-2 years, and often experience relief within 6-8 months.

Your experiences are unique based on your personality, background, upbringing, and beliefs among other factors. While the types of treatment I use fall under "evidence-based treatments," there is no one size fits all. How our work will look and what your therapy journey looks like will be tailored to best reach your goals and meet you where you're at.
