To get to know a person, I learn more about his/her family and the surrounding the person grows up with. This is the central philosophy for how I treat my clients.

For example, when exploring the self-image or life purpose. it is nearly impossible not to explore the family’s impact. Sometimes, it triggers worry and loneliness and brings you pain. The therapist’s role is to assist clients to get insight into their life events, grow clarity about the desired future, and find ways to move forward.

Many clients come to therapy when they already exhaust their resources to deal with their life. I collaborate with my clients to develop a safe and practical plan to cope with day-to-day stress as well as the uncomfortable feeling when you uncover past wounds. You will also be assigned homework between sessions for self-observation, reflection, and action on small changes. The goal is to help you grow your awareness and insight and be confident with the path you choose.

To untangle the emotional knots in the past,

To ground in here and now, and

To grow insight into the desired future.
