areas, ranging from depression and personality disorders to child development and end-of-life issues.

First session

Therapy is a space where one can develop a deeper understanding of themselves, learn how to manage difficult emotions, and, receive guidance and support while working towards your goals.

Strengths

Being American born Chinese, I struggled with my identity growing up. I wasn't Chinese enough for the Chinese kids, but too Chinese for everyone else. This led to me being bullied to the point of not wanting to live anymore. Fortunately, my 5th-grade teacher found the "good bye" letter I wrote, and my parents soon afterwards enrolled me in therapy. Over the course of a year, I gained valuable life skills and coping mechanisms that have stayed with me to this day. This experience made me realize that I wanted to help others in similar situations, and decided to pursue my career in therapy.

Ideal clients

I enjoy working with individuals of all ages and with a wide array of issues. I like to meet people where theyre at, and to give them to tools needed to reach their goals

Treatment methods

Eclectic

I utilize an eclectic approach, allowing me to draw upon a diverse range of therapeutic techniques and strategies to address the specific needs and goals of each individual.

I started seeing Eric years ago and he was the best therapist I’ve ever had. Unfortunately we had to stop and I’m so glad when I joined Grow therapy I reconnected with him. He’s the best!!
