About My Clients

I specialize in working with Asian/BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, immigrant, and neurodivergent adults and couples on issues around identity, social anxiety, general anxiety, depression, trauma, body image, self-esteem, grief, perfectionism, and relationship challenges.

My Background and Approach

My approach is warm, relational, and grounded in deep respect for your unique story and inner wisdom. Drawing from parts work, somatic practices, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, and multicultural frameworks — I work collaboratively to slow down and adapt to what you need in the present moment. I understand how lonely it can feel to carry parts of yourself that the world doesn’t easily make space for — and how healing it can be to have someone walk with you on the journey and truly witness you. I have been there before, and you don’t have to go through it alone. It takes a lot of courage to seek support, and finding a therapist who is the right fit can be challenging. Whether you’re ready to start therapy or simply exploring and have some questions, I welcome the opportunity to connect.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I offer therapy grounded in the belief that therapy is not about “fixing” what’s wrong with you — but about reconnecting with what’s always been right. Somewhere along the way, we have been told that we are “too much” or “not enough.” We may have developed a harsh inner critic and experienced fear, shame, and trauma that keeps us from our inherent sense of belonging and connection. I believe that you are the expert of your experiences and that our personal challenges exist within larger systems, and I welcome the full complexity of your lived experiences. Together, we’ll make room for the complexity of who you are. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, burnout, or simply trying to understand yourself better — you’re welcome here, exactly as you are.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
