Work HistoryGreetings! I am a bilingual (English and Mandarin Chinese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and currently a fourth-year Ph.D. candidate in Couples and Family Therapy. I am professionally trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Bowen’s theory, Gottman Method, CBT, and more. I believe that each person is comprised of unique yet charismatic components such as personal upbringings, religious beliefs, and cultural backgrounds, that all contribute to narrate a cohesive personal story. I will tailor my treatment orientations to better serve your individuality. I work with individuals (teens and adults), couples, families, and groups. My passion is to help my clients achieve their treatment goals through understanding the misunderstood, discovering hope from the hopelessness, speaking the unspoken, and seeking possibilities through the impossible. I also have a background in the medical field where I have obtained a strong foundational knowledge for medical diagnosis and medications. I understand the intricacy between medical burden and mental health. I endeavor to create a safe and non-judgmental environment where you will have the freedom to discuss anything in any category.
