About Me

I am a licensed therapist with a holistic mindset who provides online-friendly counseling via phone or computer for women, parents, young adults, adults, seniors, and couples who wish to de-stress, build resilience, find more balance, experience more peace, and feel happier. 

​In addition to my formal training in psychotherapy, I also have done years of study in mindfulness, spirituality, meditation, metaphysics, and Energy Psychology. I have made deep explorations into many spiritual and wisdom traditions including non-duality, Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, and Toltec. I am also a writer, editor, speaker, and life coach, who has written and presented extensively on mental health and spiritual matters.

In therapy work, I believe a client's culture, background, race, gender orientation, and sexuality all come into play. I am a BIPOC-affirming therapist and stand against all racism, including systemic racism. I am LGBTQIA+ ally. As someone whose immediate family includes people who are African-American, Korean-American, Vietnamese, gay, and bi-sexual, I am attuned to challenges faced by those who are under-represented in the U.S. and can work with you as a staunch ally. 

I love strong coffee and adore the beach. 
I believe my lived experience as a daughter, mother, wife, single woman, sister, aunt, and friend has greatly contributed to my ability to listen to and understand other people going through their own challenges in life, and I consider it an honor to be entrusted with the job of being a therapist. ​
