Feeling stressed and overwhelmed lately? Or struggling with depression or anxiety for as long as you can remember? Everyone might be dealing with something different. My job is to create a safe and non-judgmental space for your pain to be seen. I hope you will feel safe to talk about everything in this space. I believe that psychotherapy, at its core, should be a healing relationship. Through this relationship, you can slowly learn to experience your life a little differently.

My name is Bryant. I hold a doctorate degree in clinical psychology (Psy.D.). I am licensed as a clinical psychologist in WA. I have experience working with patients across age ranges who struggle with various issues. I can provide therapy in both English and Mandarin.
