Do you describe yourself as a “people pleaser”? Perhaps frozen from imposter syndrome or perfectionism? I help people who frequently struggle with beliefs such as "I'm not good enough" and grew up in critical environments. In my practice, I see adults, children, and teens. The most common concerns I see are those who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma/complex PTSD. Additionally, I see people diagnosed with ADHD, as they often need support for longtime feelings of inadequacy, regret, anxiety, and depression .
As a second-generation Asian American, I have an understanding and experience in providing therapy to those raised by immigrant parents. I am here to offer you help in processing any painful feelings and experiences such as guilt, shame, obligation, and/or sense of distance from your family that many feel growing up in two (or more) cultures.
Therapy can help us make sense of our experiences, and shift the relationship with ourselves and others. You can learn more about my areas of focus via my website. I offer a free 15-minute video or phone consultation to help us determine fit. Please also check your spam folders for reply, thank you.

I often work with clients on their feelings of guilt, sense of obligation to their aging parents, particularly those of Asian descent. I believe it's more comprehensive to examine our past experiences while being mindful of what we can work to change in the present.
