Counseling Approaches:

I have extensive experience working with children and families through my previous education career and as a youth group director at my church. My approach to counseling is client-centered, where empathy, understanding, and collaboration are key to effective therapy. I incorporate various methods such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help you achieve your goals.

I believe everyone’s story is unique and sacred. Therefore, it is my highest honor to accompany you on this journey. I strive to ensure the counseling room is a safe and non-judgmental environment where you can process and work through the challenges of your life.

About Me:

I was born in China and immigrated to America with my family when I was 10 years old. Adapting to a new environment was challenging as I had to learn a new language, adjust to different foods and cultures, and embrace a new religion, Christianity. Christ has saved me and guided me through many aspects of my life, and I am passionate about serving the Lord by serving the community through counseling.

I am interracially married to a wonderful White man for almost a year, and we are still learning and growing in our married life together. Currently, I am pregnant with our first child and am eagerly looking forward to this new chapter.

Outside of counseling, I enjoy reading, daily devotions, walking my dogs, engaging in DIY art projects, and exercising.
