I’ve been in practice for 17 years, and I bring warmth, honesty, and a little humor to my work with clients. I’m trained in trauma and attachment work, and I help clients make sense of how past experiences can show up in their emotions and relationships today. You can expect me to listen closely, care deeply, and gently point out patterns that may be keeping you stuck. We’ll work together to find practical ways to help you feel more grounded, connected, and confident in yourself.
If you’re struggling with your relationship with food, your body, or feeling stuck in cycles of restriction, bingeing, or guilt, you are not alone—and you don’t have to face it by yourself. In my private practice, I specialize in working with individuals navigating eating disorders and disordered eating.
I provide compassionate, individualized therapy for adolescents and adults experiencing anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, chronic dieting, and body image concerns. In addition to eating disorder treatment, I work with children, teens, and adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, personality disorders, substance use, and challenges related to identity and the LGBTQIA+ community. I am committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where clients of all backgrounds feel seen, respected, & supported.

Do you ever feel like you’re constantly questioning whether you’re “good enough,” even after working so hard to get where you are? Maybe you overthink every decision, and say yes when you want to say no. If you’re navigating imposter syndrome, people-pleasing patterns, or the pressure of balancing cultural expectations with your own identity, I hear you. As a second-generation AAPI woman, I understand the unique pressures that come with navigating cultural identities, family expectations, and the feeling of being “in between” worlds.
