Together we will work to improve well being and develop new insights. I use several modalities of treatment including most commonly, the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach to help mitigate stress, depression, anxiety, grief, life transition issues, relational issues, as well as parenting.

The way you think, feel, and act creates your reality. But it can be hard to quiet your mind as it is currently. Maybe you're caught in cycles of overthinking or people-pleasing, prioritizing others’ needs and leaving little space for your own. You long to feel connected and grounded, but the buzzing energy never fully fades. Even when things look fine on the outside, you might feel emotionally overwhelmed or like you're not doing enough — no matter how much you achieve. You may wonder, “Why do I feel this way? Am I broken?” You’re not. These thoughts and feelings are trying to point you somewhere. I can help you make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface to live with ease, authenticity, and pleasure. Let's explore your potential reality together.
I have years of experience working with youth, adults and families during times of heightened crisis and uncertainty. Specializing in stress management, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and trauma .
I graduated from Smith College School of Social Work in Northampton, MA, in 2002 and have been helping people with various mental health issues since that time. I have been trained in psychodynamic therapy, DBT, mindfulness, and Somatic Experiencing, among other modalities.
I am passionate about supporting my clients to feel congruent internally, so they can further understand and communicate their needs externally. While talking is the most obvious way for communication, I also love to incorporate our somatic experiences during sessions (with your agreement, of course). As an immigrant from Taiwan, it's also my mission to provide my expertise for people struggling with "fit in", while transitioning to any new environments.

I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I'm committed to providing personalized, evidence-based support tailored to individual needs and experiences. Drawing from a decade of clinical experience, I offer a warm, collaborative approach that empowers clients to understand themselves more deeply and make meaningful life changes.
I am a U.S. Navy veteran that came to therapy late in life after a successful career in Tech. I am very analytical but also empathic, compassionate and humorous.
Life doesn't come with a roadmap and it's normal to feel overwhelmed at times. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use, cultural or identity concerns, grief/loss, and relationship challenges. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and approachable space where you can explore your experiences and take meaningful steps towards change.

I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and recovery. My background includes years of experience supporting clients in both outpatient and community mental health settings, which taught me that true healing happens when people feel seen, safe, and empowered to take small, steady steps forward.

I believe in combining insight with action—helping you not only understand what’s happening but also find concrete ways to move through it. Whether we’re addressing past trauma, current stressors, or future goals, my goal is to help you reconnect with your resilience and rediscover a sense of meaning and momentum in your life.
