About My Clients

Do you feel isolated? Do you have problems making yourself understood by others because of your particular cultural background and living experience? Have you been noticing the need to constantly look for other people’s positive feedback to reassure yourself of your self-worth? Do you still carry the burden of past traumatic encounters that get in the way of your living openly and freely? You are not alone. In your struggles with pain and depression, there is a proven path to self-love.

My Background and Approach

I am a behaviorally oriented therapist specializing in treating trauma as well as emotional and behavioral dysregulation. I am bilingual and can provide therapy in both Mandarin and English. My cross-cultural experience has enabled me to better understand and form deep connections with people from different cultures, races, and religions. My therapy approach is collaborative and transparent. Together, we will look at goals you'd like to achieve and form an actionable plan by balancing acceptance and change while cultivating self-compassion. I am currently licensed in VA, MD, NY and D.C. If you are interested in how I might be helpful to you, please contact me for a free 15-minute consultation.
