I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Washington State, with over 15 years of experience providing therapy for adults and couples. I earned my Master’s degree in Psychology from Antioch University Seattle in 2008 and have been licensed since 2010. I am also a certified Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapist.
My work is informed by evidence-based therapy approaches, including EMDR therapy, mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the Gottman Method of couples therapy. I support clients seeking therapy for anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, relationship concerns, and life transitions, tailoring treatment to each person’s needs and pace.
Over the past decade, I have become deeply interested in the mind-brain-body connection and how neuroscience helps explain emotional and behavioral patterns. I integrate current neuroscience research into therapy to help clients strengthen emotional regulation, build resilience, and improve overall mental well-being.
As a speaker of Mandarin and Cantonese, I value providing culturally responsive therapy for clients from diverse cultural backgrounds.
In addition to my private practice, I have supervised a team of licensed therapists at a nonprofit organization and have written extensively on mental health topics through blogs and quarterly newsletters.
I am committed to mental health education and community outreach. I have facilitated workshops for mental health professionals, corporate employees, college students, and community members. These experiences continue to inform my clinical work and support my ongoing growth as a therapist.
