I approach therapy as an open, safe, and comfortable place for clients. I immediately work on creating a good client-therapist bond. I encourage open communication and collaborative work toward creating goals. I ask clients, as part of therapy and to increase the completion of goals, to do the work we discuss outside of therapy. I ask for a commitment from them to do the work otherwise the process is slower and the chance of reaching goals is decreased. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group.

I empower individuals to overcome personal obstacles to improve their lives by providing a unique individualized treatment plan for each client. I have been working in the mental health field since 2009. I use clinically tested and evidence-based interventions as well as a personal and warm approach to help my clients overcome symptoms of trauma, anxiety, depression, as well as mood disorders. I have experience working with young adults with ADHD to help with executive functioning. I have extensive training in helping clients who have experienced trauma, loss, or difficulty coping with change. I was a clinical member of the Critical Incident for Stress Management (CISM) team that provided trauma treatment and support to first responders. I have a background in forensic treatment and evaluation and court testimony. I understand how difficult it can be to take our first steps into seeing a therapist.

Everyone suffers from mental health issues at some point in their life—whether minor or major—and it’s important to have help from someone you can trust. I aim to establish trust by creating a safe and comfortable environment for you to share your story with me. Regardless of your background, history, appearance, diagnosis, identity, or beliefs, I regard you unconditionally and genuinely care about your well-being. In our sessions, I utilize a therapeutic approach that focuses on the improvement of mental health through 1) a healthy lifestyle, 2) mental calm and clarity, and 3) self-awareness: of both your problematic views and life-directing values. Together we can carefully identify your barriers to mental health, develop clear recovery goals, and help you find ways to implement action plans that align with your values. My role is to accompany and guide you in your path of healing. As a mental health professional, it’s essential to have my own practice of well-being in order to better help others heal. I have over 15 years of experience practicing mindful living, meditation, and instructing others in mindfulness-based practices, before as a Buddhist monk, and now as a mental health counselor. I specialize in helping people manage their anxiety, depression, cravings, and anger, as well as minimize problematic judgment and rumination. I’m skilled at helping my clients clarify their life direction. I’m bilingual, speaking Mandarin Chinese as well as English, and I have years of counseling experience working with Chinese-American people suffering from chronic & severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia and other forms of psychosis. I’ve lived in Chinese cultural environments for years, and in this way, I believe I’m also fluent in the Asian-American cultural overlap. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth. For my availability, please reach out to Octave’s team by emailing or calling.

My favorite part of being a therapist is the continuously evolving relationship that I foster with my clients. I love learning about my clients— everything that makes them who they are, from their interests to their cultural influences to their friends and family, and how all of this impacts the way they view the world. I am passionate about assisting clients who suffer from anxiety, OCD, and relationship issues but also enjoy working with clients with a variety of other concerns including addictions, self-esteem, trauma, and more. I provide counseling that is culturally competent and LGBTQ+ affirming. In our sessions, I can integrate therapy methods based on what works best for you; I can help you to stay present, develop coping skills, work on motivation to change, and examine how your thought patterns could be impacting the way you are feeling. I love that as a therapist I get the chance to show my clients a new way of approaching their struggles and help them learn to value themselves for who they are. I look forward to the chance to be with you on this journey; whatever you are struggling with, we can work it out together. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group.
