Hello!
I am a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), offering psychotherapy in both English and Mandarin (中文). I believe we all have the capacity for growth and healing. I work with people navigating grief, anxiety, life transitions, or those wanting to reconnect with their inner strength and self-awareness. As a mother, I hold a particular passion for supporting individuals through the emotional landscape of reproductive journeys and parenthood, whether navigating pregnancy, coping with loss, or adjusting to the emotional complexities of being a parent. This journey is rarely linear; it can stir hope, grief, identity shifts, and unexpected challenges. I offer a compassionate, grounded space where your experience is seen, honored, and gently held. Born and raised in Taiwan, I care deeply about working with those from immigrant and cross-cultural backgrounds. I understand the unique challenges of bicultural identity, language barriers, and family dynamics across generations. In addition to talk therapy, I integrate creative and embodied approaches as a Registered Drama Therapist (RDT). I also founded The Seed Troupe, a therapeutic and theatrical program supporting personal transformation through storytelling and expression. |
