My communication style

I value your feeling validated and understood. I believe self-awareness provides insight into the directions you need to take, and I'll gently challenge you when necessary for growth. My style is calm, gentle, curious, and accommodating.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up as an immigrant, I saw many broken relationships due to miscommunication and misunderstandings. I became a therapist to bridge these gaps and bring healing to relationships, especially parent-child and with self.

My goals for you

I first collaboratively set goals with my clients to establish expectations for our sessions. Depending on my client's preferences, we decide how we will get there by choosing preferred modalities (e.g., skill-based, talk-based, EMDR-based, or a mixture of everything, etc.). Progress is tracked and discussed.

Our first session

The first session is about getting to know each other and building rapport. I'll ask about what brought you to therapy, symptoms you're experiencing, goals and expectations, and any concerns. If needed, I'll provide coping strategies or psychoeducation for quick relief before we meet again.
