Have you felt like your life is like the famous 'This is fine' dog meme? You know, the one where the cartoon dog sits calmly in a room engulfed in flames, insisting everything is okay? Life can often feel that way—chaotic, overwhelming, yet we keep telling ourselves it's fine, as if saying so will make everything ok.
But pretending everything is fine when it isn't takes an enormous toll. As a licensed clinical mental health therapist, I specialize in helping people who are ready to move beyond survival mode and create genuine positive change.

Many of us long for deeper connections, for more authentic living, or to break old patterns that no longer serve. We try and try, but something continues to get in the way. It could be unhelpful thoughts, intense emotions, anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, lack of skills, etc. My goal is to start where my clients are at and to listen deeply in order to accurately assess how we can best work together. I offer a compassionate, objective perspective to help you see more than the things that have you stuck.

I understand how it feels to lose your sense of self and no longer feel at home in your own life. This experience can bring profound loneliness, uncertainty, and emotional pain, especially when you're unsure of who you are or where you belong.

Now, I am passionate about helping others reconnect with their authentic selves, build self-compassion, and create a life that feels meaningful and aligned with who they truly are.

Living with anxiety, depression, or addiction can feel exhausting, confusing, isolating, and dark. You may feel stuck in patterns and thoughts that no longer make sense, or tired of holding everything together until it's too much to bear. You want relief, clarity, and a way forward that actually feels doable, not forced or judgmental.

You may feel disconnected from yourself or others, carrying pain that has been overlooked, misunderstood, or minimized. Perhaps anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, or emotional numbness are showing up in ways that feel confusing or exhausting. You want more than coping—you want to understand what’s happening beneath the surface, heal what’s been wounded, and experience deeper connection, meaning, and a sense of belonging in your life.

Anxiety can overwhelm us when a situation is important or meaningful. If it wasn't important, then anxiety wouldn't be there at all. When mental health is compromised, what is most important becomes affected, such as relationships, health, and spirituality. Somehow you've be able to push through until now. If you're exhausted, lost, and hopeless, I can help. We will work on gaining insight to understand what's going on in your life, and what to do about it. Often healing occurs along the way. You will use your strengths and gain skills. You CAN overcome what is holding you back. You CAN engage with the important parts of life again.

You might feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in your own head, even while continuing to function at a high level. You get things done and show up for others, yet your mind doesn’t slow down. You replay conversations, overthink decisions, or carry constant pressure that’s hard to turn off. Part of you feels like you should be able to handle it, which makes it harder to talk about.
I work with individuals facing this kind of stress. Many are professionals, students, expat/TCK, LGBTQIA+, POC, and others navigating life transitions, identity, and belonging.

As a couples therapist, I work with people who want to better understand themselves in the context of their relationships —exploring identity, healing from relational or cultural trauma, or untangling patterns that once worked for them but now feel limiting. Many of the clients I support are BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA2S+ individuals who grew up adapting to environments that didn’t fully accept or understand them. My clients also want more than insight alone—they’re willing to explore new ways of relating to themselves, partner(s) and the world. I help them honor survival parts and explore new ways of being that feel freeing and authentic.

I’m a South Asian psychodynamic therapist who helps clients understand the root causes of anxiety, depression, relational struggles, and generational trauma.
You may be someone living between cultures—carrying the values, expectations, and emotional weight of the culture you were born into while trying to build a life in a different environment. You might struggle with anxiety, low mood, or feeling stuck, despite doing everything “right.” Generational trauma, unspoken family roles, or inherited survival patterns may shape how you relate, cope, and make decisions. You may feel torn between who you are and who you’re expected to be, longing for clarity, relief, and a deeper sense of belonging within yourself.

What can an Asian therapist help with?
An Asian therapist can help with the same concerns as any other therapist, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, grief, and major life transitions. How an Asian therapist can make the experience feel different, however, is the possibility of shared cultural understanding. If you identify with a background such as Chinese, Korean, Indian, Vietnamese, Filipino, or Japanese, working with a therapist who shares or understands aspects of your culture may help you feel more comfortable opening up on such topics.
What role can language play in therapy?
Language can play an important role in therapy because people often express emotions, family dynamics, and personal experiences differently depending on the language they are speaking. For some individuals, working with a therapist who speaks their native language, whether it be Mandarin, Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese, or another language, may help sessions feel more natural and emotionally connected. Even if you are fluent in English, certain thoughts or feelings may still feel easier to communicate in your native language.
How can an Asian therapist support couples counseling or family therapy?
Cultural background can play an important role in couples counseling and family therapy, particularly when family expectations, communication styles, generational differences, or cultural traditions are influencing the relationship. An Asian therapist may help partners and family members navigate these topics with more cultural understanding and less need to explain the context behind them. For multicultural or multilingual families, a Asian therapist who is bilingual may also help ensure that each person feels heard and understood during sessions.
How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience with Asian clients?
If cultural background is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask prospective therapists whether they have experience working with clients who share your cultural background or speak your preferred language. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might also ask whether they have worked with clients experiencing concerns related to identity, intergenerational conflict, family expectations, or cultural stigma around mental health.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Asian therapists?
The directory of Asian therapists includes professionals who have shared their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason; also, when the number of therapists identified as Asian is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
