I provide personalized and focused men's health that includes the psychological, biological, and spiritual domains of health and wellness. I am a dual board certified nurse practitioner in family medicine and psychiatry, so I understand and can treat the whole person. My doctoral studies focused on integrative medicine with an emphasis on men's health. I also have degrees in pastoral counseling and biblical exposition, so I am able to offer faith-forward mental health care for those who desire an integrated Christian experience.

I am an empathetic provider with a passion for women's mental health. This is why I am a dual certified nurse practitioner in both women's health and psychiatric mental health. Women have unique life experiences and challenges. I have seen first hand the need for increased mental health access for women. I believe one of the most empowering things we can do for ourselves is to take care of our mind!

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen without having to over-explain yourself. My role is to help you reconnect with your strengths, deepen your relationships, and move through life with greater self-trust and ease.

I believe mental health care works best when people feel truly known, respected, and safe. My approach combines evidence-based psychiatric care and medication management with compassionate, whole-person support. I work with children, teens, and adults, and I strive to create a space where clients feel comfortable being honest without fear of judgment.

For clients who desire it, I also offer Catholic-integrated care that honors the role faith can play in healing, identity, relationships, suffering, purpose, and hope. My goal is never to pressure or preach, but to thoughtfully integrate Catholic values, spirituality, prayer, or faith-based perspectives into treatment in a clinically appropriate and supportive way. I especially enjoy helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, postpartum mental health, motherhood transitions, trauma, relationship stress, life changes, and struggles related to self-worth or burnout.

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I provide medication management while also taking time to understand the deeper emotional, relational, lifestyle, and spiritual factors affecting mental health. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I am warm, approachable, thorough, and collaborative rather than rushed or impersonal.

Whether you are looking for practical symptom relief, deeper healing, or a provider who understands and respects your faith, my hope is that you feel supported, heard, and encouraged throughout the process.

I want my clients to know that they don't have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and genuine space where they can show up exactly as they are. I believe therapy works best when you feel understood, accepted, and empowered to move at a pace that feels right for you.

I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Nebraska at Omaha and have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in community mental health, trauma-informed care, and private practice. I primarily work with teens (16+) and adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, and self-esteem concerns.

As an Asian American therapist, I understand the importance of feeling seen and understood within the context of your culture, relationships, and life experiences. Whether you're navigating overwhelming emotions, processing past experiences, or trying to figure out your next step, we'll work together to build insight, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.
