​

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 15 years of dedicated service in the mental health and substance use fields. My therapeutic approach is rooted in compassion, directness, and deep respect for the human experience, creating a non-judgmental and supportive space where individuals can explore their truth and embrace their wholeness.

I enjoy working with individuals from all walks of life, including those in the LGBTQIA+ community, particularly transgender and gender-diverse clients. I am passionate about creating a safe, affirming space for self-exploration, identity development, and personal empowerment.

At the core of my work is a deep appreciation for the mind-body-spirit connection. I believe that true healing goes beyond symptom relief—it involves aligning with our authentic selves and living with intention and fulfillment. Through mindfulness, somatic techniques, and holistic practices, I help clients reconnect with their bodies, release stored emotional pain, and cultivate a sense of inner balance and trust.

My therapeutic approach integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and person-centered strategies to support those struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, and body image concerns. I see emotional pain as a messenger, revealing deeper emotions such as anger, grief, and fear—often the very things that block us from embracing our full potential.

I believe fulfillment comes from deep self-awareness, radical self-acceptance, and the courage to step into our truth. This is an opportunity to not only heal but to awaken to the limitless possibilities that arise when we live in alignment with our whole selves.

As a seasoned therapist, I embrace an eclectic, holistic approach to mental health, meeting clients where they are with empathy, directness, and unwavering support. My work is rooted in the belief that healing happens through connection—whether that’s within relationships or the relationship you have with yourself.

With a personal understanding of mental illness and addiction within my own family, I bring deep compassion and insight into my practice. This personal connection fuels my mission to help individuals and couples create lives that feel freer, more fulfilling, and deeply aligned with their true selves.

I specialize in couples counseling, guiding partners through communication challenges, emotional disconnection, trust issues, and intimacy concerns. Whether couples are navigating conflict, healing from betrayal, or simply seeking a deeper bond, I create a safe, non-judgmental space where both partners feel heard, understood, and empowered.

In addition to relationship work, I am passionate about trauma recovery. I help individuals process and integrate past wounds—understanding that trauma is not just something that happens to us, but something that lives in the body. Using somatic techniques, mindfulness, and evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I guide clients toward self-awareness, emotional regulation, and lasting healing.

Beyond traditional therapy, I also offer coaching for personal transformation. I believe in the power of intentional change—helping clients break through self-imposed limitations and step into their highest potential. Coaching is for those who want to move beyond healing and into thriving, focusing on mindset shifts, goal-setting, and cultivating a life of purpose and fulfillment.

Whether you're looking to build confidence, improve relationships, or create meaningful change in your life, our work together will be about breaking patterns, building resilience, and unlocking the best version of you. Through a combination of mindset work, somatic awareness, and practical strategies, I help individuals bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to be.

Your journey starts here. Therapy and coaching are not just about fixing what's broken—they’re about discovering what’s possible. Let’s create a path forward that leads to healing, connection, and the life you truly desire.

I am a Mental Health Therapist on a mission to help people navigate the wild ride of life. Whether you're struggling with issues related to adoption, parenting, anxiety, depression, trauma, or grief and loss, I am here to guide you through it all with a blend of empathy and expertise.

My eclectic intervention style allows me to mix and match techniques to create the perfect fit for each client, making every session unique and tailored to your needs. I believe that healing is a deeply personal journey, and I strive to create a space where everyone—regardless of background, identity, or life experience—feels seen, heard, and valued.

From the hustle and bustle of NYC to the sun-soaked streets of LA, I've dedicated my career to being an advocate for equal rights and underserved communities. My work has given me a front-row seat to the diverse challenges people face, and I am committed to providing inclusive, affirming care to all individuals, including LGBTQIA+ and gender-diverse communities, BIPOC individuals, and people from all walks of life.

My approach is dynamic and engaging, always aiming to bring a bit of light and positivity into the serious work of healing and growth. I firmly believe that with the right support, anyone can move through life’s challenges and come out stronger, more self-aware, and deeply aligned with their true self.

Let’s tackle life’s ups and downs together—because you don’t have to do it alone.

I am a Vietnamese Chinese American, born and raised in Long Beach, with a touch of San Francisco influence from my graduate studies. With over 10 years of clinical experience in both public and private settings, I specialize in working with depression, self-sabotage, life transitions, anxiety, trauma, and relational issues. My passion lies in helping people overcome internal barriers, reconnect with themselves, and cultivate lives of authenticity and fulfillment.

As a culturally sensitive therapist, I have extensive experience working with second-generation Asian Americans, immigrants, and individuals navigating acculturation challenges. I understand the complexities of balancing multiple cultural identities, intergenerational expectations, and the often-overlooked emotional toll of cultural transitions. I also work with those who have experienced the transformative power of travel—whether through relocation, immigration, or personal exploration—and the unique personal growth and identity shifts that come with it.

My therapeutic approach is integrative and holistic, emphasizing the mind-body-spirit connection. I believe that symptoms don’t just exist in our thoughts and behaviors but also manifest physically and energetically. Using modalities such as mindfulness, somatic work, trauma-informed care, CBT, transpersonal methods, and cultural sensitivity, I help clients move beyond symptom management to deep, transformative healing.

I believe healing is not just about resolving the past but about stepping into a fuller, more conscious version of yourself. Through spiritual exploration, body awareness, and inner reflection, I guide clients toward self-trust, clarity, and emotional balance. My approach is both compassionate and direct, ensuring that we work with care, transparency, accountability, and grace on your healing journey.

I am deeply committed to working with diverse populations, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, military families, couples, and people from all walks of life. In my work with couples, I focus on strengthening communication, rebuilding trust, and fostering deeper emotional intimacy. Whether you’re navigating cultural differences, relationship transitions, or personal healing, I provide a safe, inclusive, and affirming space to explore your challenges and reconnect with your values.

Healing is a journey of self-discovery, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you're seeking clarity, balance, or deeper fulfillment, I’m here to support you in creating a life that feels aligned, authentic, and whole.

With 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I’m here to help you navigate life’s toughest moments with compassion, understanding, and real-life solutions.

I have extensive experience working with active-duty military members, veterans, military families, and spouses, understanding the unique challenges that come with military life, including deployment stress, reintegration, PTSD, and family transitions. But my passion for helping people extends beyond any specific group—I am committed to working with all populations, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, couples, and anyone facing life’s many complexities.

Over the years, I’ve worked with individuals and couples facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, sex addiction, substance abuse, and major life transitions. I believe that relationships—whether with a partner or yourself—are central to well-being, and I’m passionate about helping couples rebuild trust, enhance communication, and strengthen their emotional connections.

Therapy isn’t just about listening—it’s about truly understanding your story, your struggles, and your strengths. My approach is warm, empathetic, and engaging, and I use a blend of therapeutic modalities, including DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and Narrative Therapy, to create a customized plan that fits your unique needs.

I know life can throw serious curveballs—whether you’re balancing the weight of a military career, navigating identity and relationship challenges, or simply trying to find a sense of clarity and direction.

Whether you’re coming in for individual therapy, couples counseling, or support through a difficult transition, I am here to provide a safe, inclusive space where you can heal, grow, and thrive. And yes, we’ll bring some humor into the process, too—because healing doesn’t have to be all heavy all the time.

You don’t have to do this alone—let’s take this journey together.
