About My Clients

I work with adults navigating identity, substance use and recovery, grief, cultural dislocation, and relational challenges. Many of the people I have worked with are immigrants, creatives, LGBTQ+ individuals, or people living between languages and roles: those who’ve had to rebuild more than once.

My Background and Approach

I see therapy as a space to make sense of these moments, not by rushing to rebuild, but by sitting in the in-between. To pause. To ask better questions. To remember choice, even when things feel beyond control. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic and existential thought, shaped by trauma-informed and relational practices. I also work integratively when needed: drawing from narrative therapy, vocational support, and practical strategies to meet you where you are. Whether we’re unpacking the past or navigating the uncertainty of a major life transition.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I’m part of the LGBTQ+ community, a first-generation college and graduate student, and a first-generation professional in my family. Coming from a multicultural background, I understand the complexities of navigating multiple identities, cultures, and expectations. These experiences shape my belief that therapy should be a space where every part of you is welcomed. I’m especially passionate about working with people who live between worlds, are going through big transitions, or feel unseen in their daily lives. I offer sessions in English and Mandarin so you can share your story in the language that feels most natural.
