About Me

I specialize in working with diverse adults who are experiencing difficulties with life transitions, being present for the day-to-day, or mental health symptoms including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I approach therapy with compassion and warmth, creating a safe space where my clients can freely explore and understand their inner world.  Grounded in culturally-informed practices, I specialize in evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These approaches have been shown to effectively address various challenges, help you deepen your self-understanding, change unhealthy habits, and reconnect with a meaningful, values-aligned life. In partnership, we can work together to create a targeted plan to help you become more grounded, present, and fulfilled.
As a second-generation Chinese American cisgender woman, I am deeply committed to culturally-informed and evidence-based practices in therapy. I hold a PhD in Counseling Psychology from Arizona State University and have extensive training at diverse sites including college counseling centers, VA hospitals, private practice, and public hospitals. I completed my APA-accredited pre-doctoral internship at the VA Los Angeles Ambulatory Care Center and postdoctoral residency at Kaiser Permanente Redwood City Adult Psychiatry.
