What This Work Can Help You Do:

Understand Yourself More Deeply

• Reconnect with parts of yourself that have felt suppressed, stifled, or hard to acknowledge

• Build insight into how difficult past experiences still shape the way you live and relate

• Learn to recognize self-critical thoughts, limiting beliefs, and internalized rules without being ruled by them

• Put language to experiences that have felt hard to name

Change the Ways You Relate

• Build relationships that feel more secure, mutual, and true to who you are

• See relationship patterns that may not have been clear before, and make sense of why certain patterns keep repeating

• Recognize how you may lose yourself in connection through habits like people-pleasing, overfunctioning, self-silencing, minimizing your emotions, or fearing what will happen if you are fully known

• Give a voice to your wants and needs without feeling they have to be justified, earned, or permitted

Move Through Difficulty

• Have your struggles named, witnessed, and held with care, so they can feel more understandable and less isolating

• Process trauma, grief, and difficult life experiences in ways that feel safe, human, and less defined by shame

• Develop a clearer internal compass when you feel torn, stuck, or unsure how to move forward

• Break overwhelming, hard-to-name struggles into clearer and more workable parts

A commitment to inclusive and affirming therapy:

My practice is informed by my lived experience as a queer, nonbinary, trans, Asian American person. I aim to offer anti-racist, gender-affirming, and LGBTQ-affirming care that honors the complexity of our identities and the broader systems that shape our lives.
