Every relationship comes with its fair share of issues. Navigating the complexities of life together is hard enough, but when you start to feel regularly distressed or hopeless, about your relationship, it may be time to seek professional help. No matter what your issues seem to stem from (disagreements about money, sex, stress, chronic illness, mental illness, infidelity, trust, emotional distance, parenting etc.), if you and your partner are arguing more frequently and experiencing feelings of resentment or contempt, it is likely that there are some underlying problems to address. Because many problems in relationships are a result of communication issues, a qualified mental health therapist can teach you to find new ways of talking to each other to help you find your way back to common ground. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s relationship and marriage issues experts today.

Our experiences in life shape us, but they do not have to define who we are. I work with people who are going through life transitions, survivors of trauma, and/or who are experiencing depression and anxiety. Or, maybe you are at a point in your life where you are ready to live your life more authentically, you may be searching for support as you begin this new journey. Depth therapy may help you to understand more about yourself and bring balance between your inner and outer worlds.
As a specialist in sexual health, my primary focus is often helping others build a sense of sexuality that feels sustainable and meaningful to their lives.

The clients I work with come from all walks of life, each bringing their own unique set of experiences and needs. I love working with individuals who are open to collaboration, enjoy a good sense of humor, and are open minded about the work we are doing together. I believe that all three of these components are important aspects to what makes our therapeutic relationship successful, so I ensure I bring them into every session and encourage my clients to do the same!

My clients are people who want more from life and are ready to shed the limiting beliefs holding them back from being the most confident version of themselves. Throughout life, we learn defense mechanisms and poor coping strategies that keep our authenticity and inner spark locked deep inside of us. By going to therapy, you can dig through layers of programming that leave your true self boxed in, rewrite the stories that keep you small, and find the inner fuel for making the most out of life.

Are you struggling in your relationship? Maybe you and your partner just can't get on the same team. You're feeling unheard, misunderstood and unprioritized. And you might even wonder if this relationship is going to make it. I specialize in working with couples and individuals looking for help navigating their relationships. I help clients see the ways that they might be self-sabotaging. I help them relearn how to communicate and connect, in ways that actually work.

Relationships form the foundations of our lives. The problem is we often take them for granted and the foundation starts to crack. Or maybe we're trying our best yet we keep pushing others away because we haven't healed ourselves yet. We get comfortable with what is and step back from what it takes to keep our bonds strong and thriving. I can help you if you find yourself asking: What if they don't really care about me? What if I can never make them happy? What if I'm not enough?

Throughout my training and time as a clinician, I've gotten the pleasure of working with clients from all walks of life going through various life stages. I work best with clients who are open to feedback, stay consistent in their care, and stay curious to explore different perspectives of their narrative. I primarily serve couples, college students, young adults, and immigrants with a focus on depression, anxiety, burnout, relationships, and boundaries. (Korean sessions available)
Often times, people find that they experience unhappiness, anxiety, or repeated obstacles to getting what they want in relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. I see patients who experience anxiety, depression, personality disorders, and other forms of unhappiness or dissatisfaction. I have had success with pre-teens, teens, adults, and couples.
