I could list all my accomplishments from the past 30 years, but that wouldn't give you a true sense of my style or beliefs. I strive to empathize, be respectful, and remain non judgemental. We all face worries, stresses, and challenges daily, and we all need someone who listens and understands. While family and friends can provide wonderful support, talking to someone with professional expertise and an outside perspective can be incredibly beneficial.
I am passionate about supporting my clients to feel congruent internally, so they can further understand and communicate their needs externally. While talking is the most obvious way for communication, I also love to incorporate our somatic experiences during sessions (with your agreement, of course). As an immigrant from Taiwan, it's also my mission to provide my expertise for people struggling with "fit in", while transitioning to any new environments.
Drawing from over three decades of experience in mental health, addiction counseling, and psychiatric rehabilitation, I offer specialized, personalized approaches for both individuals and couples.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lexington
Finding the right therapist in Lexington, MA starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or stress — or whether you're looking for broader mental health care. From there, look for a licensed provider (such as an LMHC, LICSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist) who has experience with your needs and offers a style that resonates with you.
With many providers practicing across the Greater Boston area, practical factors matter too. Think about whether you prefer in-person sessions close to Lexington or the flexibility of virtual appointments. Reviewing a provider's bio can give you a sense of their approach and personality before you commit, and a free phone consultation can help you decide if it's the right match.
Therapy in the Boston metro area can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session — making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
