Life can feel overwhelming when emotions seem too big to handle or when you’re trying to figure out who you are. You might feel anxious, misunderstood, or caught between different worlds — wanting to belong, but unsure where you fit. Whether you’re a teen navigating pressure from school and family or an adult balancing expectations, grief or identity, therapy can be a space to breathe, slow down, and reconnect with yourself.

As a trauma-informed, DBT-certified therapist, I help clients learn to regulate emotions, build confidence, and recover from experiences that have left them feeling disconnected, grieving or stuck. My approach combines practical coping tools with genuine curiosity and warmth, so you can better understand your emotions and develop resilience in everyday life.

Together, we’ll explore your story at your pace, honoring both the pain and the strength that brought you here. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to be honest, to grow, and to move toward a life that feels authentic, balanced, and your own. You don’t have to carry everything alone — healing begins when you allow yourself to be supported.

I graduated in Rutgers University with a BA degree in psychology, 2022. After that, I pursued a mental health counseling master degree in Johns Hopkins University.

In therapy, I am solution focused and use approaches that are supportive and effective: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Play Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and trauma-informed care. I also incorporate mindfulness and practices rooted in Buddhist and Taoist traditions that honor your unique cultural background.

I believe in meeting you where you are, respecting your lived experience, and working together to help you reconnect with your strengths, process your pain, and move toward a more meaningful life. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or distant—it can be collaborative, warm, and deeply healing.

If you’re ready to take the next step, I’m here to walk with you. I will be working virtually and from the Lakeview Office.

如果你因为学业感到压力重重，对自己的身份感到迷茫，或者正在努力寻找归属感，请相信你并不孤单——你不需要一个人面对这一切。我专注于帮助青少年、青年和成年人，他们正在经历重大转变、身份困惑、被误解的痛苦，或者在以神经多样性身份生活中挣扎。

无论是学业压力、焦虑、倦怠、失落，还是对自己和未来的疑问，我都会为你提供一个安全、没有评判的空间，让你可以完全做自己。我也特别支持移民家庭、第一代移民，以及在多重文化之间寻找平衡的人。作为一名双性恋的亚裔女性，我深深扎根于中美两种文化，我理解在复杂身份中穿梭所带来的重担——也理解那其中的力量。

在治疗中，我运用既支持性强又有效的方法：接纳与承诺疗法（ACT）、认知行为疗法（CBT）、游戏治疗、焦点解决短期治疗（SFBT），以及创伤知情的治疗方式。我也融入了佛教和道教中与正念相关的文化实践，来尊重并接纳你的独特文化背景。

我相信从你所在的位置出发，尊重你的生活经历，与你携手合作，帮助你重新连接内在力量、处理情绪创伤，并迈向一个更有意义的生活。心理治疗不需要是冷冰冰的或距离感强的——它可以是协作的、温暖的、而且具有深度疗愈作用的。

如果你已经准备好迈出下一步，我会在这里，陪你一起走下去。
