I seek to help people manage the challenges they are facing and make real changes in their lives. In our work together, we will set goals, build a deeper understanding of maladaptive patterns, and learn more ways to manage the stress in your life. My specialty areas include anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationships, and parenting. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with specialized training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I offer individual, couples, and family therapy to adults and children of all ages. Convenient evening and weekend appointments are available to accommodate your schedule. I graduated from Columbia University with a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and trained at NYU Child Study Center, Columbia University Medical Center and New York State Psychiatric Institute. I completed a postdoctoral fellowship at New York Presbyterian-Westchester, where I gained further expertise in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for the treatment of depression and anxiety. I strive to maintain a warm and non-judgmental stance in therapy. I believe strongly in the collaborative process and will work actively with you to help achieve your therapeutic goals. I am happy to speak with you about any questions or concerns you may have about beginning therapy.

Life is hard. For many of us, we often become overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, loneliness, uncertainty, fear, you name it. To make things worse, we experience trauma and discover that some of our deepest wounds come from our relationships. Of course, we want to protect ourselves from relationships, change, and the unknown. I get that. From working in schools, residential facility, and private practice setting, I've learned that there is also something inside each of us that yearns for healing, loving connection, and pure joy. So, what is getting in the way? Let's explore that together. I have a non-judgmental and compassionate approach when providing counseling for individuals. What that means is I relate to you as another imperfect human being who understands the impact of trauma, life transitions, stress, anxiety and several other factors that affect our day-to-day lives. I will offer you a space to freely explore your struggles and opportunities for healing. Let’s be real, we don’t know each other and it’s going to feel weird at first to share your story with me. I thank you for even considering. Sometimes the hardest step is the first one. I recognize and respect that. Whenever you’re ready, I am ready to join you. You don't have to figure it out on your own.

Pre-Licensed Professional
Beacon, NY

S H A D O W L I G H T CENTER is a holistic and alternative approach to traditional talk therapy. We offer sessions on Zoom. We are both POC as well as racial justice and LGBTQIA+ allies devoted to deconstructing systems of harm to humans and non-humans resulting from racial, heteronormative, and hierarchical power structures. We are licensed in New York to provide therapy and practice holistic help to people outside of New York State. We integrate the mind-body-spirit (this is not a faith-based approach). We are trauma-informed and create safe spaces for you to be heard for issues large and small that college students face both in and beyond college. We weave mindfulness, somatic awareness, ancestral healing, spiritual connection, finding purpose, grief counseling, energy balancing, post-psychedelic therapy integration, and more. We specialize in helping people understand how mental health issues like depression, anxiety, etc. are related to ancestral traumas, the pain present on the earth right now, as well as our personal histories. Conventional Western wisdom says it’s only about the self, i.e. a "chemical imbalance". But wellness is more complex and inter-connected than we have been made to believe. Reach out for a free Zoom consultation.

Yorba Linda, CA

You wonder what it may look and feel like to trust and know yourself better, especially with recent life events or transitions, like college and young adulthood! You seek guidance to overcome recurrent self doubt, passive-aggressive, or avoidant behaviors- familiar patterns in your family and past relationships. For the past 18 years, I have provided compassionate, person-centered therapy to adults (college/20's, middle age, and older adults) navigating life transitions, relationship changes and challenges, and mood disorders. Clients appreciate my ability to listen and support them with kindness, cultural understanding, and non-judgment, while offering feedback and resources. Whether you’ve tried therapy before or this is new to you, understanding yourself and being supported through life changes and challenges builds your resilience and confidence! Being a 1st generation Asian American immigrant, parent, spouse, and social worker has shaped my capacity to appreciate and support clients with navigating complex seasons of change.

Most of my 25 plus years of practice have been spent working with adolescents and young adults. I have done so within classrooms as a teacher as well as in my office in private practice. I am specifically aware of the increasing demands placed upon young people to excel whether those demands are internal, external or both. My clients will tell you that they never have to wonder what I am thinking as I am fairly direct in my approach. My experience has been that, tempered with a good sense of humor and genuine concern, this style allows for lasting change. In this time of telehealth, I have night and weekend video appointments available as well.
