About

Are you feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? Navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, or the impact of trauma or painful past experiences can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m a licensed therapist in New York City, offering personalized in-person and remote therapy to support you through life’s challenges. I utilize psychodynamic, Sandplay, DBT, and mindfulness practices to help clients break unhelpful cycles and discover new ways of being and connecting in life. Additionally, I offer short-term EMDR for clients who are looking to supplement their current individual talk therapy. My approach is collaborative and grounded in trust, helping you gain clarity and create meaningful change. I explore how cultural, societal, and systemic influences shape self-perception and relationships, with specialized experience working with the AAPI community, biracial/multiracial individuals, and transracial adoptees.
