I specialize in working with women and parents navigating major life transitions. This includes those dealing with pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, infertility, and pregnancy loss. I also work with clients processing birth-related trauma or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety and identity shifts.
Most of us aren't born knowing how to navigate relationships, understand our emotions, or process trauma. Many things influence how we react and behave, but that doesn't mean we can't grow. My goal is to help you build confidence through discovering your self-worth and practicing self-compassion. My priority is creating a safe, judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable. I show up as my authentic self to build trust with you. I'm an empathetic listener and communicate in a calm, gentle, respectful way. My job isn't to tell you what to do, but to help you process and explore topics to build self-awareness and confidence.
I enjoy working with individuals and families, and desire to support and empower you to find your voice. I specialize in depression, anxiety, identity, relationships, suicide and self-harm, and trauma. My training is in CBT, DBT, trauma-informed treatment, cultural competency, Asian American/Pacific Islander mental health, and more.

My journey to becoming a therapist began years before I attended college. From an early age, I found myself listening to others and offering suggestions. I have spent many years working with individuals in various capacities. Once I began my career, it was clear that the helping profession was the right fit, as I enjoy working with people. I consider it a privilege to work with clients who choose to open up and share some of the most difficult and painful parts of their lives with me. I am often reminded of why I do this work each time I meet a client and I hear their story and learn how they have coped. I am in awe of how resilient people are in the midst of their storms. My education to become a therapist includes obtaining a Masters degree in clinical social work as well as a license in clinical social work. In addition, I hold a doctorate in education which allows me to integrate my clinical expertise along with psychoeducation into my practice.
