I approach therapy with the belief that everyone has a life story that is worthy of being met with compassion and empathy. My work background, combined with my identities as a member of the Asian and LGBTQIA+ community equips me to work from a strength-based, trauma-informed, and anti-oppression framework. Additionally, this intersectionality assists me in maintaining a culturally sensitive and intersectional lens that is rooted in compassion and curiosity.

I utilize a variety of approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness practice, distress tolerance skills, and more. I offer a holistic approach to therapy and create a collaborative and supportive therapeutic relationship to reach your desired goals.

I invite you to contact me to set up a free 30-minute consultation and discuss if the supportive services I provide are the best fit for you.
