I work with individuals aged 16 and up, and I am committed to creating a collaborative and empowering therapeutic relationship. I believe that working together means uncovering your strengths, confronting challenges, and developing strategies that enhance your well-being and quality of life. Taking the first step towards healing is an act of courage, and I recognize that seeking therapy can be a significant step, especially for those whose backgrounds and experiences are underrepresented.

As a social worker/therapist, I understand that your identity, background, and cultural experiences play a vital role in shaping your mental and emotional well-being. My practice is grounded in cultural sensitivity, with a humanistic and relational perspective. Whether you're struggling with the pressures of acculturation, the weight of past traumas, or the challenges of adapting to a new environment, I offer a tailored approach to help you navigate in the face of change.

I identify as a neurodivergent, Asian female social worker/therapist and I have a rich background in community health, and serving marginalized populations. I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of individuals, each carrying their own stories and challenges. I graduated from Seattle University with my Masters in Clinical Social Work and got my B.A in English Literature from UW, and have a background working with King County, medical clinics, hospitals, foster care, schools, and community health centers. 

My therapeutic approach draws from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, Acceptance-Based Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Informed Care, and Mindfulness practices. I believe in providing psychoeducation and skills to help empower you to have the tools you need to create the life you want. These techniques empower us to address your unique needs and goals, fostering sustainable change and personal growth.
