Are you tired of the non-stop chatter in your head judging every move you make? Is the constant loop of negative thinking making you feel like you are not good enough? No matter how many times you try to talk yourself out of this—you just can't seem to shake it. You are doing all the things you’ve been told to do and yet something is missing. You feel alone. You feel misunderstood. You feel anxious. You turn to food, alcohol, Netflix, or whatever else that can make these feelings go away. You promise yourself that next week will be different. You will start the new diet or the new program, you will commit to being a new you. What if there is another way? I work with women to get this cycle can end. There can be freedom from the despair caused by believing that you are not good enough. You want a deeper connection in your relationships. You want more joy in your life. You want less stress and worry. I can help you get there. There is a different path.

For sleep issues, I work with the CBT for insomnia treatment model. These are just a few examples of treatment approaches I utilize.

I currently reside in Phoenix and provide therapeutic services via telehealth to individuals, couples, and families. I received my Master's in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and my Bachelor's of Science at Northern Arizona University. I was born and raised in Phoenix, and identify as biracial (Vietnamese/Caucasian), queer, and non-religious. I have background experience in inpatient and outpatient settings, specifically in schools/in-home, community mental health, and psychiatric settings. I am seasoned in treating behavioral and mood/anxiety-related disorders, autism, trauma, gender dysphoria, and relationship issues (although I am not accepting couples at this time). Outside of my career, I enjoy art, piano, cooking, traveling, and going on romps with my Malinois pup, Ranni.

Are you ready to be guided on a journey of self-discovery and growth? I imagine that you are now eager, open-minded, and ready to embark on a transformative experience. You are read to come to each session with a willingness to explore your innermost thoughts and feelings, eager to unravel the complexities of your mind and heart. You are ready to follow the pathway to long-term healing and personal development. Maybe just maybe, a willingness to be vulnerable may have stopped you in the past. But now, you are at a place where you understand that true healing comes from opening up and allowing yourself to be seen, flaws and all. You may be afraid to confront difficult emotions or explore uncomfortable truths – I will make you comfortable so that you can welcome these opportunities as catalysts for growth. I recognize the importance of trust, honesty, and collaboration in the therapeutic process, and I committed to building a strong and supportive partnership with you. I see you. You are not just seeking a quick fix or temporary relief – you're committed to long-term healing and personal transformation. You understand that therapy is a journey, and you're ready to take the first step toward a brighter, more fulfilling future. So if you're ready to embark on this journey together, I invite you to take that first step and reach out today. Together, we can unlock the door to a happier, healthier, and more authentic life.

I’m interested in the magic of therapy. I don’t see you as a list of symptoms, but a complex individual with a deep inner world, both unique and universal in nature. I feel a responsibility to not only be gentle, nurturing and validating, but also direct and challenging, especially as it pertains to acknowledging your own shadow. I like to think you can share anything with me imaginable, without judgement. It’s important that my own humanness and fallibility shows up in the room, so that you may feel comfortable showing and owning yours as well. When we work together we are not just trying to “solve an issue,” but we are engaged in honoring the creative depth of your existence, and learning what it is seeking. What are you seeking to understand? I'd love to journey with you. Let’s journey together.
