College can be a naturally high stress period during your life. I’m here to help. With a career spanning business and higher education administration, I am equipped to support students as they navigate this critical transition period in their life. Providing guidance and support for students in highly competitive and high-pressure environments is a cornerstone of my experience as a master's program coordinator at the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League institution. For many, college is less of an exciting journey and more of an overwhelming burden. As an Asian American, LGBTQ+ therapist, I am passionate about addressing the unique cultural and intergenerational dynamics that can shape your mental health experiences. My therapeutic style is client-forward and we’ll work together to identify, understand, and alleviate the pressure points in your life. Feel free to reach out for a consultation – I look forward to our work together!

I’m a licensed psychotherapist who works with young people to understand and disrupt unhelpful patterns, better cope with challenging situations and discover greater ease, self-acceptance and healthy expression. I am committed to serving students in all content areas to navigate pressure, the pursuit of excellence and transition to career. It is important to me that LGBTQ+ people feel safe in the therapeutic space. I often help clients navigate grief, complex trauma or anxiety and I offer unique therapeutic perspectives when supporting those processing childhood rejection, ADHD and executive functioning challenges, university stress, or careers in the arts. My clinical practice is informed and enriched by my career as a professor, director, and administrator in the performing arts. I have directed or taught theatre courses at some of the most well-regarded theatre programs in the country, including Juilliard, Yale School of Drama, and NYU TISCH School of the Arts. As a therapist, I create a space for you to bring your whole self, feel safe, respected and understood as well as learn new skills and take on new perspectives. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all therapy, instead I tailor therapy to your individual needs. I draw from cognitive-behavioral, relational, and trauma-informed strategies, while also integrating expressive arts and movement or somatic lenses when useful. And I always offer a steady and reliable presence. Clients who work with me gain a more accurate understanding of what is really going on for them, and make positive changes in their thoughts, assessments and actions, resulting in greater satisfaction and functioning in their lives. I’m honored to support you in your therapeutic journey!

My work is grounded in the belief that trust is the foundation for healing and growth. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore who you are, understand what’s getting in the way of the life you want, and learn tools to support meaningful change. Growth can be uncomfortable, but it’s also an opportunity to rediscover yourself—and you don’t have to do it alone. In my practice, I support clients navigating neurodivergence (including ADHD and autism), racial and cultural identity, sexual health, problematic porn use, and challenges with executive functioning. Together, we work on building awareness, creating systems that support your unique needs, and developing skills to foster balance and connection in your life. My background spans clinical practice, advocacy, and policy. I’ve had the privilege of serving communities both locally and internationally including work in Mexico and Ghana, and serving as Director of Health Policy and Advocacy at a healthcare advocacy organization focused on Latino communities. These experiences have shaped my commitment to equity, inclusion, and cultural humility. Whether you’re exploring your identity, working through relationship challenges, or learning to create healthier habits and boundaries, I’m here to support you in finding yourself and building meaningful relationships both with others and with yourself that will help you thrive! Reach out for a free 15-minute video consultation so we can decide if I'm the right therapist for you!

Have you ever felt stretched thin by the demands of your workload, personal responsibilities, and the pressures that come with navigating a major life transition? I specialize in supporting first-generation, BIPOC, and legacy students who are navigating the challenges of academia. Using a person-centered approach, we will work to strengthen your sense of self beyond academic and professional achievement. My experience supporting individuals in high-stakes environments—ranging from community-based settings to state and city government agencies—has equipped me to work at the intersection of trauma, systemic inequity, and resilience. I often integrate somatic practices to deepen the mind-body connection and take a trauma-informed approach to foster sustainable growth and healing. Reach out for a free 15-minute video consultation. Wherever you are in the journey, I look forward to supporting you!

At our practice, we recognize that emerging adulthood represents a critical period of identity formation and personal growth. This stage—often marked by exploration, instability, self-focus, and a feeling of being “in between”—is both exciting and challenging. We understand that these years are a time of questioning who you are, what you value, and what you want your life to look like. We help clients focus on their own development, goals, and emotional well-being, using evidence-based interventions tailored to the unique challenges of this life stage. Whether you are exploring career paths, building relationships, managing mental health symptoms, or simply seeking clarity about your direction, we can hold space for you to pause, reflect, and grow.

Empowering You to Resiliently Grow. I’m a therapist who loves providing counseling services to individuals, especially young adults.

Whether you’re facing anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, or family stress, I offer a warm, supportive space to explore what’s been difficult and begin the process of growing through it. You deserve a space where you can be heard and process the many changes that come with increasing independence, such as living in close proximity with peers. Whether you’re managing anxiety, ADHD, academic stress, social stress, depression, trauma, or difficulties with family members, I’m here to help you uncover what’s holding you back so you can move toward solutions and lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empathy. I combine therapeutic methods like CBT, DBT, ACT, Trauma-Focused, Narrative, Family Systems, and Attachment-Based therapies to meet your unique needs and goals. I'll help you consider your thoughts, feelings, and tools to build self-awareness and strengthen your ability to manage life’s ups and downs with confidence.

Navigating the world as a neurodivergent or LGBTQ+ person comes with unique challenges. But guess what, you don’t have to do it alone.

College is such an important time. You’re learning and growing in classes, and you’re also figuring out who you want to be in the world. Being away from home, navigating friendships and relationships, and making decisions about your future can be exciting, but they can also feel lonely, confusing, or overwhelming. If you’re feeling unsure of yourself or of your path, you’re not alone. I love working with college students and offer a warm, supportive space where you can talk things through, make sense of what you’re feeling, and learn to advocate for what you need. We’ll work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and at home in your life. I look forward to hearing your story and supporting you as you build the life you want.

College can be a lot in general. It can especially be when you’re balancing identity, family expectations, and your own hopes for the future. I grew up as a second-generation Chinese American in the Midwest, so I understand what it’s like to move between cultures while trying to figure out who you are. I offer a space where you can slow down, sort through what’s real for you, and make decisions that actually feel aligned. Whether you’re burnt out, overwhelmed, or just trying to make sense of this phase of life, I’m here to support you in a way that feels steady, collaborative, and grounded in your lived experience.
