New to Grow
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (NY) and Licensed Professional Counselor (NJ) who has been working in the mental health field since 2018. I have experience working with adults and adolescents in outpatient group practices as well as collaborative interdisciplinary inpatient settings. A big reason why I became a therapist is reflected in the quote: "Your vocation is where your deep gladness meets the world's deep need" (Frederick Buechner). I find tremendous joy in helping clients move toward healthier and more meaningful lives.
In therapy, I believe healing happens most effectively in a judgment-free space in which each person’s experience and perspective is honored. My goal is to help you feel deeply seen and known. Let's work together so you can learn to navigate your thoughts and feelings with greater control and experience more freedom in your life.
My approach to therapy is person-centered and includes evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing. I specialize in Christian counseling, and would be happy to incorporate faith-based perspectives as needed.
I am passionate about helping Asian American Christians bridge the gap between their faith and their emotional reality. I offer a culturally nuanced, and safe space to process intergenerational trauma and untangle spiritual exhaustion. Together, we can unpack the unique cultural and family dynamics that taught you to silence your own voice. If you are ready to move past performance-based living and cultivate a deeply rooted, emotionally healthy life, I would love to walk alongside you.

I identify as
Christian Counseling
My therapeutic approach is integrative, meaning I tailor my clinical skills to meet your unique needs. I believe that true healing happens when we honor the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. If your Christian beliefs are an important part of your life, we can incorporate a faith-based perspective into our work together depending on your comfort level and where you are on your spiritual journey. Your faith can be an incredibly powerful resource in your healing, and I am here to help you draw strength from it in whatever way resonates most deeply with you.
