LCSW

I am a psychotherapist in California with over 10 years of professional experience in helping people. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, cultural adjustment problems, trauma, abuse, and depression. I also have experience working with young adults, adults, and older adults of different cultural backgrounds.

I use evidenced-based techniques including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interview techniques depending on what might be needed to help you reach your mental health or life goals.

I look forward to supporting you as you continue to cope with different life changes and challenges. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life. I am here to support you as you take the first steps in that journey of making positive changes. I have a BA in Psychology from the University of California, Berkeley, and a Master of Social Welfare from the University of California, Berkeley. I am also fluent in Cantonese.

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
