About Me

I am a second-generation Chinese-Vietnamese American, and I identify as queer and neurodivergent. These identities deeply inform my work, and I am passionate about supporting BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals who feel caught between cultures, families, or their own internal expectations. My own healing path has taught me about the importance of presence and slowing down to remember what truly matters to you beneath the influences and expectations around you.

I received my Master of Arts degree in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies in 2026. I received further training in Gestalt therapy at Church Street Integral Counseling Center. I am currently working as a Marriage and Family Therapist Trainee under the supervision of Deanna Jimenez, LMFT #90954.

Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy reading and writing poetry, making soup, connecting with nature, balancing reverence with absolute irreverence, and, most importantly, laughing with dear friends.

Therapy can be daunting. I hope to reflect your strengths and gently elucidate growth edges to help you create a more intentional life. I am an intuitive ally who will listen deeply to both what is spoken and unspoken so that we can learn about the subtle experiences that are seeking to be tended to. I am also a practical guide for those who may want tools to navigate sensitivity, overwhelm, distress, and trauma. And for those seeking otherwise, I am also a spacious witness able to honor the multidimensionality of those who sit across from me.
