I believe in your strength and resiliency even if you no one has ever told you this and at times you may not have felt this way about yourself. You have made it here despite what the world has thrown at you.

I am a warm and compassionate therapist.

I guide my clients with patience and a calm presence.

I teach my clients the science behind why they feel the way they do.

I provide research-based therapies that are brain and body centered. These types of therapy target both the thinking mind and the nervous system so that you can both logically understand and also physically feel the shift in your body.

I offer hope to my clients by helping them uncover their own inner wisdom and who they truly are meant to be. We do this by getting to know the inner critic, the caretaker, the people-pleaser, and other aspects of ourselves that work so hard in running our daily life.

I have specialized training in 10 different types of therapy modalities and blend these together. These include practical skills based ones like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), inner child parts work of Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic practices (body based tools of breathwork and movement rooted in traditional Asian practices and Western research on trauma), and neuroscience based trauma processing through Brainspotting.

I blend my lived experience as an Asian American eldest daughter of Taiwanese immigrants who grew up in the South and my clinical expertise from being licensed for over 20 years as mental health therapist.

I am a collaborative therapist who supports you having choices in what your healing looks like. This means I am open to questions you have and feedback on what is working or not working for you in therapy. We can adjust therapy to what feels most helpful (offering a different type of therapy modality or a different format of therapy).

I can provide a referral to a couples or a family therapist if you would like additional support in your relationships.

If I am not the right fit for you (you need to see a therapist who accepts your insurance or a therapist who offers evening appointments), I can provide you with referrals to other therapists.

My therapy style is very collaborative and active. I combine clinical expert knowledge and over 20 years experience as a licensed therapist with a calm, caring, and authentic presence.

I am extensively trained in specialty trauma treatments and use 10 different therapy modalities: AEDP, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness and Self-Compassion, Somatic Approaches, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution Focused, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I integrate these together with neuroscience.

This means that you have choices and can access the type of therapy that is most beneficial for you. Lasting healing is more likely when we incorporate both brain and body based therapy modalities.

I offer virtual online telehealth appointments for those in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, North Carolina, and South Carolina and in-person appointments in my Atlanta, Georgia office.

I provide individual and group therapy as well as workshops for adults ages 18-64.

My individual therapy appointment times are Monday-Friday 10am-5pm Eastern Time and you can choose either 50 minute and 90 minute sessions depending on which works best for you.

My 75 minute therapy groups and 2 hour workshops are on weekday evenings and weekend mornings.

When you start therapy, I recommend meeting weekly as people generally start noticing improvements and feeling somewhat better (less overwhelmed and more capable of handling day to day stress) after 8-12 sessions.

After these initial sessions, we can meet weekly or every 2-weeks, depending on what is most beneficial for you as you continue to work on improving your relationships, and decreasing the intensity of your self-doubt and inner critic.
