I'm a licensed psychologist working with adolescents, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, grief, significant life changes, or challenges with attention and focus. My goal is to offer a safe, affirming space to explore your life, your story, and what matters most to you — your experiences, your values, and where you hope to go. You are a complex, whole person made up of many parts — and there is room here for all of them.
Hi there! I’m glad you’re here. Seeking support takes courage, and I’m honored to be part of your journey.
I’m Daniel, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who provides therapy in both English and Mandarin. I work with adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and cultural or identity-related concerns.
My goal is to create a warm and supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I look forward to walking alongside you as you navigate this chapter of your life.
I have a strong track record of working with parents, building relationships and connecting with youth who are reluctant or nervous about therapy. I have a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and Masters in Education and Childhood Development.

I give you the tools to be kinder to yourself and step back into your life refreshed and empowered.
Are you feeling stuck, fearful, hopeless, or uncomfortable with yourself or your relationships? Pain is unavoidable, but I can help you carry that burden as we work towards solutions together.
