About My Clients

Adjusting to changes is hard, but not impossible. I have experience working with issues like life transitions, anxiety, depression, and experiences of bullying and racism. I work with teenagers and adults, with a specific interest in emerging adults. Spending majority of my life in China and having studied in the US as a graduate student, I understand the unique experiences coming from an east Asian/Chinese background (international students, immigrants, etc.) and navigating US society.

My Background and Approach

I am an integrative therapist greatly influenced by humanistic, relational and CBT directed approaches. I also draw from mindfulness, Gestalt therapy and drama therapy to creatively address issues. I love exploring with my clients to see what methods, techniques or tools work best for you because I do not think therapy is a “one for all” thing. Working together, we will collaborate and design our own map for healing.
