Sometimes the most difficult step in the healing journey is the very first one: reaching out. If you're feeling lost, stuck, or off-course, I’m glad you reached me and I’m here to help. I'm an NYC-based therapist offering personalized treatment in life transitions, reprocessing trauma, family dynamics, and codependency and relationship issues. My practice focuses on building trust and safety so you can share and explore your own unique experience. I also work to understand how cultural, societal, and systemic pressures can impact our relationship to ourselves and others.
While I work with a variety of clients, I have specialized experience and training working with the AAPI community, biracial/multiracial folks, and transracial adoptees. I often integrate EMDR, Sandplay, and mindfulness based practices in my work. I also offer short-term EMDR for clients who are looking to supplement individual talk therapy.
I approach all of my clients with empathy and authenticity, and work to meet you where you are in the therapy process. Please contact me if you are interested in working towards your goals together.
