SPECIALTIES

  • Children

    Many children struggle to accurately identify or communicate their emotions verbally. As such, they may express their feelings through their actions.

  • Teens

    Adolescence is a balancing act between increased independence and autonomy, while still remaining dependent on caregivers.

  • Young Adults

    The transition to adulthood creates a variety of challenges for everyone. It is common to experience issues related to education, career, and family, friendship, or romantic relationships.

  • OCD

    I offer quality education and evidence-based treatment to reduce the distress associated with chronic obsessions or compulsions that can impact day-to-day life.

  • Anxiety & Depression

    Anyone can experience the hardships of anxiety or depression. I teach clients healthy coping strategies and how to approach rather than ignore these painful feelings.

  • AAPI Mental Health

    As a fellow member of the AAPI community, I am here to support clients in their healing by helping them to unpack the complexities of their intersectional identities in a safe space.
