As an Asian American therapist, I bring a compassionate, authentic, and empathetic approach to counseling. I am passionate about building meaningful relationships and providing a safe, supportive space for self-discovery. My work focuses on helping individuals navigate anxiety, life transitions, and multicultural challenges, and I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to personalize care to each person’s needs. I have a diverse background, with experience in mental health, academia, faith-based ministries, and non-profit organizations, along with a season of full-time parenting. Raised in a Taiwanese immigrant family, I grew up balancing two cultures and observing my parents pursue the American Dream. From working with at-risk youth in NYC to living in Spain, and now parenting college-aged and teen children, I’ve had the privilege of hearing stories from people of all backgrounds. As a breast cancer survivor, I’ve gained strength and resilience in facing life’s challenges, and I am honored to walk alongside others through their own struggles. I view each person through the lens of my faith, believing that everyone is unique, worthy of love and respect. Life can be messy, but there is hope, and it's my privilege to journey with you.
