"To be more fully connected is to be more fully oneself" Hi, I am a bilingual (Mandarin) therapist in NYC and surrounding area with over 13 years of clinical experience supporting children, couples, and families. My client-centered approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to each individual’s needs. I have worked with diverse populations in child welfare, psychiatric centers, and the education system, helping clients navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Selective Mutism and relationship issues. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, gain clarity, and find greater meaning and fulfillment in life

Welcome!

Mental well-being is a top priority because it is the key that opens the door to a happy, healthy, and stable life. Life can be full of unpredictable circumstances and events that leave us feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, stressed, anxious, or depressed. Experiencing one, or all, of these starts to negatively impact critical areas such as sleep, work, self-motivation, personal relationships, or lead us to start engage in unhealthy outlets. It also makes us feel all alone and emotionally trapped. Reaching out for help can initially feel uneasy and it is a difficult task, but be proud of yourself that you are taking that first step! I have over 20 years of clinical experience working with clients aged 13 to 75 with a main focus on working for you, your needs, and how to achieve your goals to live a happy, healthy, and stable life. Specialty areas include anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, Acute and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, relationships, couples/marital counseling, sexual issues, employees of law enforcement agencies, and forensic based testing.

Do you notice patterns of behaviors that you are unsatisfied with? Therapy is a significant step towards working through and facing life's most difficult challenges. I have worked with adults, adolescents and children treating issues of adjustment, self-doubt, mood swings, trauma and anxiety attacks. When you approach the therapeutic process with curiosity, you can grow, heal, and thrive.
