About me
I am a Limited License Counselor who works with individuals navigating multicultural concerns, life transitions, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, relational challenges, and other mental health concerns. I speak English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.
I work with individuals navigating multicultural concerns, life transitions, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, relational challenges, and other mental health concerns. I draw from an eclectic mix of approaches—including psychodynamic therapy, CBT, solution-focused therapy, and emotion-focused therapy—tailoring to clients’ unique needs. My style is nonjudgmental, person-centered, and empathetic, fostering a safe and supportive space where clients feel truly heard and understood. I will work with clients to explore their unique experiences and values, cultivating deeper self-awareness and insight. With a greater understanding of oneself, they will feel more empowered to make thoughtful, intentional choices that align with their goals.
I offer counseling in three different languages, including English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.
