Our Team

As a queer first-generation Asian American, I am passionate about the ways in which I can advocate for mental health in all communities. Culture, environment, the multiple identities you hold, and the societal systems in place can all be significant contributors to the stressors you face. In exploring these factors collaboratively with you, I hope to empower you to recognize your strengths and to draw upon them.

I work with culturally inclusive, anti-oppressive, LGBTQIA+ affirmative, and strengths-based lenses. With expertise in various areas, including health, disabilities, racial identities, gender and sexual identities, anxiety, trauma, and relationships, I bring a wealth of experience to our sessions.

Let's embark on a transformative journey together! I'll be your guide, supporting your self-reflection and personal growth, while honoring your unique voice. We'll explore the roots of your struggles, set empowering goals, and develop practical tools for your daily life. I am committed to building a trusting relationship and safe space with you.

There are times in life when the work of being a person in the world can feel utterly unmanageable, if not downright impossible. Therapy should be a place of respite and recovery from these challenges - it is here that we can slow down, process, laugh, cry, heal, and grow. Everyone deserves a therapeutic space where you can be seen in the way you want to be seen, and heard in the way you want to be heard. In my work, I seek to create a collaborative space based on values of affirmation, trust, and compassion, in which we can explore and address the adversity that prevents you from leading the life you want to lead.

My practice draws from relational, psychodynamic, and feminist modalities to create a holistic approach best suited to your needs. I specialize in working with people who identify as queer, trans, and gender-expansive, but welcome all with a curiosity for cultivating self-knowledge and insight.

Finding a therapist - and dealing with mental health challenges in general - can feel extraordinarily difficult at times, but know that you are deserving of support and care.

Therapy can seem daunting, and you may be hesitant to start, but you've already taken the first step! As a therapist, my goal is to help you reach your own goals and to provide guidance and support to get there. I aim to create a safe and inclusive space, where my clients can express themselves and explore their own worlds without judgments. I encourage open communication and humor within our sessions, as I want my clients to feel comfortable and welcomed!

I work from a person centered approach, with a focus on relational work, as I believe our lives are built through the connections around us. I enjoy working with an eclectic range of people and experiences, spanning from relationships, life transitions, identity exploration, and the nuances in-between.

Whether you're looking for support in your relationships or someone to lean on as you begin your journey to becoming the person you strive to be, I'm your girl. Let's take the next step together.

Whether it’s starting a new job, ending a relationship, or feeling stuck in a recurring pattern of behavior, life's many surprises and challenges can feel overwhelming. Therapy can help. I work with individuals to practice reflection and access their internal wisdom. Through this process, you get to know yourself more deeply and embrace the joy within your journey.

I value a person-centered approach where you are the expert of your own experience. In the therapeutic process, you are the driver and I share some tools and ideas to help you arrive at your desired destination. My approach involves a variety of talk-based and body-based techniques, a little humor, and a lot of patience to give you the space to grow.

I provide services for individual and couples therapy at this time. I primarily work with people who experience depression, anxiety, and challenging life transitions. Whether you are exploring therapy for the very first time or looking to return to sessions you are welcome to reach out for a chat.

Many of us develop patterns of behavior and explanatory narratives in response to life's demands. Over time, this form of adaptation can lead to a false sense of self. Sooner or later, though often around midlife, our typical ways of coping and sublimation no longer work, and we are called to reconnect with our true selves. Therapy can support this process of uncovering and freeing ourselves from maladaptive patterns.

I work alongside individuals and couples to support them in achieving their goals. I am particularly attuned to challenges that arise from avoidance, stress, anxiety, depression, unresolved conflict, and relationship issues. I can offer many approaches including psychospirituality, attachment theory, and parts work.

My experience includes working with adults of all ages struggling with major life transitions such as illness, becoming a new parent, caregiver fatigue, and processing grief and loss. By connecting through compassion and curiosity, I aim to cultivate a therapeutic partnership that feels safe, non-judgemental, and supportive allowing space for growth.

Whether you are learning to address new life obstacles or overcoming lifelong struggles, my treatment approach focuses on maximizing your personal strengths. My goal as a psychotherapist is to provide you the tools and self-determination you need to better manage your life in a safe, trustworthy environment free from judgement.

Experienced in providing care for individuals with depression & anxiety, trauma, emotional distress and impulsivity, substance use, and LGBTQ+ areas. I am skilled in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, with over 15 years experience addressing substance use related issues.

My evidence-based, empathic, person-centered approach allows clients, regardless of their age, to unlock their capacity and desire for personal betterment and change. I believe authenticity and collaboration is important in a truly therapeutic relationship as we work together to help you meet your goals.

I am so excited to be working with clients who are using psychedelics and want to enhance their experience through psychotherapy. I’m hoping you will find my experience, education, knowledge, and wisdom enough of a spark to make your first appointment. My approach is always compassionate, empowering and accepting.

With over 30 years experience, I am constantly learning and growing in the field of mental health. My niche is working with couples who are struggling to find the love which brought them together in the first place.

I am very passionate and excited about my work with clients who experience mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, codependency, addictions, eating disorders, body dysmorphia, postpartum depression, and relationship issues. Together, we will embark on this journey of self exploration and personal growth.

I work with young adults and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, issues related to drugs or alcohol, and those recovering and healing from trauma. I have supported individuals in exploring their gender and sexuality and embrace non-binary, trans, and queer identities. I also specialize in perinatal, postpartum, and parental mental health. Many of my clients are mental health care providers themselves, who need clinical supervision or emotional support. My approach supports exploration of both the roots of emotions, behaviors, and patterns, while also talking about the here and now.

I approach therapy as collaborative journey to understand more about our selves, experiences, and relationships. At the heart of the work is an exploration of the unconscious with the aim of bridging our past and present. Within the therapeutic space we can develop insight that expands our consciousness of self, other, and the world around us.

In my work with children, adolescents, and adults, I strive to create a friendly and affirming space where you can feel safe to explore all aspects of yourself. I enjoy collaborating with my clients to make meaning of life experiences. We can partner to address things such as self-awareness, acceptance, body image, healthy relationships, gender identity, sexuality, anxiety, depression and whatever else we discover as important to your ongoing journey of well-being. I hope to cultivate our therapeutic relationship through humor, curiosity, and transparency.

I offer a trauma-informed, eclectic style of practice that draws on evidence-based, psychodynamic, and relational theories. I integrate play therapy, movement, and somatic mindfulness techniques to help clients connect with their emotions and how they experience them in the body. I aim to foster curiosity and compassion around your goals in our work together

I believe building an authentic relationship between therapist and client is the key to effective therapy. As a queer, white, non-binary therapist, I am committed to showing up with cultural humility, anti-racism, and warmth in each session. I welcome you as you are. Feel free to reach out to explore if we may be a good fit.

The search for meaning and authenticity is central to our lives. Whether you are experiencing a time of particular difficulty or simply want to understand yourself more deeply, therapy can provide a space for support, connection, and collaboration in your life’s journey.

Many people I work with experience relational difficulties of various kinds, including long standing issues with roots in the past as well as current challenges in professional and personal life.

I have post-graduate training in psychoanalysis and take an eclectic approach to therapy, customizing treatment to each individual.

Book a session with me if you want to create a healthy and empowering narrative of your life that you can understand and reconcile with. Prior to working as a therapist, I studied comparative literature in college and worked as a copywriter in the advertising industry, discovering, creating, and sharing “stories”. I was drawn to therapy as an occupation, having learned that psychotherapy, essentially, is a process of storytelling. As a therapist, I strive to empower and support my clients in their journey of uncovering and re-arranging their thoughts and feelings to create a coherent and empowering narrative of their lives.

Raised in Seoul, Cairo, and Dubai and now living in New York — all extremely different places — I have a deep empathy for people going through big life transitions—whether it’s geographical, cultural, familial, between jobs/schools/relationships or regarding their gender identity—and are dealing with a sense of loss, isolation, and anxiety as a result.

My approach to therapy is holistic, person-centered, and strength-based, fueled by my genuine curiosity about my clients. I primarily draw from trauma-informed, relational psychodynamic therapy and narrative therapy, but I believe holding a warm and safe space where my clients can freely explore themselves, without fear of judgment, is even more crucial.

I specialize in working with children and adolescents grappling with challenges related to emotional regulation and distress tolerance. My approach is rooted in compassion and evidence-based practices, and I take pride in tailoring therapy sessions and treatment plans to meet your child's unique needs. My clinical experience includes working with individuals who have acute and chronic trauma, adjustment disorders, ADHD, ASD, behavioral concerns encountered at home and in school, global developmental delays, mood disorders, OCD, and PTSD.

I've found that a combination of child-led play therapy, child-friendly Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques yields remarkable results. Play therapy not only encourages flexible thinking but also equips children with the skills they need to navigate social situations with confidence.

For teenagers, I specialize in addressing common issues such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, suicidal thoughts, low self-esteem, bullying, and LGBTQIA+ concerns. By understanding your adolescent's unique strengths and areas for growth, I focus on establishing and achieving tangible goals through emotion-based therapeutic work.
