About My Clients
Many people come to me having had months or years of therapy, most of which include simply "talking about my issues" with no resolution, no skills gained, and little insight into what they're experiencing. My passion is to understand and resolve the root of the problem and enact real lasting change, not just temporary relief. To increase access to therapy, I also take insurance (Blue Cross Blue Shield & Aetna, and superbills are provided for out-of-network).
My Background and Approach
I am a clinical psychologist specializing in trauma/PTSD, depression, and OCD using EMDR, CPT, CBT, ExRP, PE, and other evidence-based treatments. As an Asian-American child of immigrants, I take the time thoroughly explore your childhood, upbringing, family of origin, and culture in relation to mental health. The modalities I use are scientifically reviewed and shown to be effective for moderate - severe mental health issues, designed to treat disorders while reducing dependence on therapy. Patients typically "graduate" from therapy within 1 - 1.5 years, with significant or total resolution of symptoms. I follow a person-centered multicultural perspective to support and empower you on this journey. Everyone has the right to happiness and fulfillment. We just sometimes need some support, encouragement, and accountability to reach our goals. If you're feeling stuck, or have not found success with prior therapy, you're not alone.
