Introduction

I bring warmth, curiosity, and a grounded presence to our work together. As a New York based therapist and first-generation Chinese American, I take a person-centered and culturally responsive approach, guided by compassion. I support adults and teens navigating anxiety, stress, relationships, identity, family dynamics, and life transitions. Together, we’ll slow down, understand your choices, explore what you may be avoiding, and make room for more intentional decisions that bring you closer to your authentic self. My hope is to create a space where you feel understood, gently challenged, and supported in your growth.
