Welcome!

I am a licensed psychologist based in Irvine, CA providing individual therapy to adults. I have a goal-oriented, yet calming and supportive style to guide people in gaining the tools to manage their stress, improve their self-esteem, handle unexpected changes, and connect in a more meaningful way with others.  In over 20 years of experience, I have specialized in working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and sexual orientations, including adult children of immigrants, college and graduate students, university faculty, staff and administrators, healthcare, tech industry and creative professionals, working parents, and people at transitional times in their lives. I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), self-compassion and other evidence-based approaches. I work collaboratively in therapy to actively address issues such as anxiety, stress, self-esteem, identity concerns, life transitions, and cultural adjustment. I also have over 10 years of experience leading an anxiety and stress management group for young adults. I have a particular expertise in working with Asian American populations. I am sensitive to multicultural and intersecting backgrounds, and personalize my approach to each individual’s unique needs.

Services are offered through telehealth via a secure platform to residents of California.
