Sometimes the hardest part isn't figuring out what's wrong. It's finding someone you actually trust enough to talk to. Someone who gets it, not just the words but the whole context of your life.

Anxiety and depression are at the center of so much of what I see, often woven through with burnout, the weight of acculturation, school or career stress, and the compounding exhaustion of navigating systems that weren't built with you in mind. I work with all of it, and I try to take an approach rooted in your specific life, not a generic template.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker offering therapy in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese. My background includes crisis line work, community mental health, and group practice. I work with adults from all kinds of backgrounds, with particular focus on BIPOC communities, immigrants, and refugees.

My own immigrant identity shapes how I show up in this work. I understand what it means to hold multiple worlds at once. I understand how much can get lost in translation, and I try to create a space where nothing has to be.

In sessions I draw from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and somatic practices. I believe change happens when inner wisdom meets practical tools in a relationship that actually feels safe.

I hold a Bachelor's and Master's in Social Work from the University of Washington.

If you're ready to be seen and supported, I'd love to work with you.
