About My Clients

I partner with folks (12+ years old) to navigate life with Gender Dysphoria and gender identity exploration, complex trauma, depression, anxiety, disordered eating and more. If you are feeling overwhelmed or hopeless, or facing a crossroads, I may be able to help.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Therapist and Gender Specialist with nearly a decade of experience specializing in treating Gender Dysphoria across the entire lifespan (9 to 65+ years old). I offer a holistic clinical experience that fuses traditional clinical practices (psychodynamic therapy, CBT and DBT) with intuitive forms of healing (mindfulness and energy work). I aim to guide you in identifying the root causes of your suffering and developing the skills needed to heal from trauma and to thrive. As a Vietnamese-American transgender man, I understand that stress, violence and oppression can significantly impact our lives. Even still, it is possible to build an authentic, freeing life. Having a supportive therapeutic relationship can help.
