Psychotherapy Provider (Registered Psychotherapist)
I am a Registered Psychotherapist who specializes in art therapy, and am fluent in both Mandarin and English–sessions can be provided in both languages. Through an trauma-informed, intersectional, and client-centered approach, I support individuals navigating relationships, trauma, acculturation, self worth, anxiety, depression, life transitions, deeper understanding of themselves, and other therapeutic goals.
My intersections as a bi-cultural, Taiwanese, first-generation immigrant woman give me insight into how cultural factors influence personal, relational, intergenerational, and systemic aspects of the human experience. These identities and my lived experience equip me to work with an intersectional lens and help develop a deep understanding towards clients.
As someone who continues to navigate and heal through interpersonal, familial relationships and intergenerational trauma, especially within the context of transitioning between cultures, I understand the challenges and pain my clients may be experiencing. I see you and would like to invite you to reach out and see how I can best support you on your journey.
