I am currently accepting new clients.
I offer both in-person and virtual sessions.
Growing up in an East Asian cultural context, I experienced firsthand how family, social, and cultural influences can shape the way we think about ourselves and the world. These influences are not “right” or “wrong,” but they don’t always align with each person’s unique needs and values. They can make it easy to overlook your own feelings, prioritize others’ expectations, or struggle with self-doubt and difficulty expressing your true needs. Having gone through this myself, I deeply empathize with these challenges. My passion for therapy comes from a desire to understand these experiences and to create a space where often-overlooked voices can be seen and heard. As a therapist, I aim to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their inner world, understand themselves more fully, and find a path that feels authentic and meaningful.
我在东亚文化背景中成长，深切体会到家庭、社会和文化如何在潜移默化中塑造一个人的思维方式和自我认知。这些影响本身没有对错，但有时未必真正契合每个人独特的需要与价值。它可能让人忽略自己的感受，把他人的期待置于首位，甚至带来自我怀疑或难以表达真实需求的困扰。作为亲身经历者，我理解这种矛盾与压力，也感同身受其中的无奈与挣扎。我对心理治疗的兴趣，正源于希望理解这些感受，并为那些常被忽视的声音创造一个被看见的空间。作为心理治疗师，我希望为来访者提供一个安全、理解的环境，帮助他们倾听内心、理解自我，并找到真正契合自己的生活方向。
