About My Clients
We usually find ourselves connecting more easily and opening up more when we are a good match for each other. We feel better just being with someone who can listen and explore the past safely with them. During our time together, we will work as allies to take sustainable, lasting, and meaningful steps toward a more fulfilling life. We will unpack emotions, trauma, and life challenges in a meaningful and manageable way to create change.
My Background and Approach
As a therapist, I am honored to be a part of the journey to help you connect with yourself as well as with others. I strive to collaboratively create a calm, relaxed, trauma-informed, and client-centered safe space through a systematic lens. I also hope this space allows healing to take place through each minute, each word, each glimmer of hope, and each moment of self-realization. As an immigrant and an Asian-identified therapist, I am particularly sensitive to diversity in culture and self-identity, including with respect to race, gender, and sexuality. I believe in the importance of affirming the unique individual experience with cultural humility. Through compassion, sensitivity, and empowerment, we will work together respectfully to acknowledge vulnerability, unearth patterns, attend complexity, and gain ownership of change to achieve the most authentic and expansive self.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
The desire to know and to be known is a normal human experience. I hope to create more space where folks can come to breathe, to be, to experience unconditional acceptance and positive reflection, and to create alternative narratives and visions for themselves.
