I work with adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions and grief. Many of my clients feel stuck or unsure how to move forward, whether that involves improving focus and follow-through, coping with loss, or navigating changes in mood and life circumstances.
You may be overwhelmed, struggling to stay focused, or going through a difficult change in your life that makes you feel stressed out.
With over 30 years of experience in healthcare as both a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Nurse, I bring a practical understanding of how physical, emotional, and mental health are connected, especially for adults managing ADHD, focus challenges, and overwhelm.

Mental health issues may be difficult to discuss with loved ones, especially if there are cultural barriers. As an Asian American, I experienced the phenomenon of feeling like I had two separate identities. I often felt like an outsider as I questioned “who am I?” While there are many cultural barriers we must face with mental health, you don’t have to face them alone! I can help you navigate your experiences with cultural identification, family communication, children’s mental health, (e.g. depression, anxiety, and/or behavioral concern), parenting, and diversity.
