I can help you discover new ways to communicate & get the response you've been wanting from your partner. Let's get you both feeling safe and connected again.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Struggling with transition, trauma, or loss? Longing for a life that fits with who you truly are inside? Depression, grief, relationship issues, trauma, & anxiety can leave you exhausted, stuck in painful old patterns. But they can also be opportunities for growth. Therapy is a process of "tending the soul," as well as addressing life's problems. I especially like working with women in midlife. To learn more about finding balance in middle age, check out the "Recent Articles" section on my website: www.soulcarepsychotherapy.com/

My personal and educational experiences as an Asian-American woman of first-generation immigrant parents have shaped my values as a trauma-informed and social justice-oriented clinician.
I work with individuals who would like to explore how their upbringing has influenced the way they relate to others. Perhaps you’ve noticed the same patterns emerging in your romantic relationships or friendships, and you’d like to understand why. Do you struggle to establish and maintain boundaries? Is there something holding you back from asking for what you need and being vulnerable? Your parents may not have provided you with much emotional support due to generational and/or cultural differences. You’d like to understand whether the survival mechanisms that you’ve learned as a child are still serving you.

The transition to parenthood is really hard, isn’t it? Maybe the journey to becoming a parent has been long and challenging. Maybe your vision for what having a newborn would be like has been abruptly altered by the reality of it all. Maybe your dreams feel like they’re falling apart as you grieve a pregnancy loss or grieve who you used to be in the “before times”. This season of life is such a uniquely transformative period that it can throw even the most well-prepared people into a state of emotional and mental chaos they never saw coming.

When looking for a therapist, you want someone you connect with, someone with whom you believe you can be vulnerable, and someone to help you meet your therapy goals. I invite you to explore and identify these characteristics of the person you want on this journey with you. I would be overjoyed if you allowed me to walk alongside you on your new journey to new patterns and healthy behaviors.

Welcome to my page. It is so important to find a therapist you feel is a good fit for you! As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, relationships are my bread and butter. I work with individual adults and couples to identify what is and isn't working in relationships, so you can practice setting boundaries, communicating needs, and living in accordance with your values. Looking at our environment helps us identify what we can control to reduce anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms. I am trained in EMDR, ACT, and Gottman Method Couples Therapy.

I am a systemic relational therapist. What does that mean? I believe everything is connected: people make up systems, and systems have patterns. I help my clients –individuals, couples, and families of all types— shift the patterns that no longer work for them. We identify the path they want to take forward, and together, we work toward that future.

Does your life or relationship need a major overhaul or maybe just a "tune up"? Having successfully worked with a broad range of client issues from families in transition or conflict, to individuals with severe trauma and depression, I have been exposed to enough that nothing you tell me will shock me. I will not judge you. Often it is our unconscious patterns and life stories that influence the way we feel, think and behave. I can help you understand "why" so that you can change and feel better.... or perhaps gain the tools needed to ask someone else to change. (Note: My practice and waiting list are full until 12/1/24. )

Do you feel like no matter how hard you try, you are stuck in the same patterns of emotions and choices? When my clients start therapy with me they often feel confused, exhausted and have difficulty making changes due to years of living in survival mode due to trauma. Sometimes, they even feel shame about who they are and the choices they are making. When they end therapy with me they feel more clear about their needs, desires and how to get both met. In therapy you can create a future that centers your assets and strengths to build a future that honors your desires and values.
