I believe that safety and trust are key to a clinician-client relationship. Having lived in and been shaped by various cultures throughout my life I recognize the profound impact of our social contexts on shaping our identities. While acknowledging the influence of our environment, I like to help clients understand the impact of external factors in their relationships and lives, and empower them with a deeper understanding of themselves.  Embracing the concept of ongoing growth, I am committed to supporting clients in achieving their desired outcomes across their personal lives, relationships, and professional endeavors.

There is no one universal approach that works for everyone. I place great importance on how therapeutic interventions should be tailored to my clients with the modality that best fits them. I specialize in providing compassionate therapy to college students and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, cultural identity, and interpersonal relationship issues.  I also enjoy working with clients around issues of major life transitions, gender and sexuality, building more effective coping skills, and managing stress related to  school, work, and relationships. I apply a strength-based approach when working with clients, with them being the experts in their lives. My clinical practice draws from the psychodynamic framework, Cognitive Behavior Therapy , and Dialectic Behavior Therapy.

I am passionate about expanding mental health access and support. Growing up in Vietnam, where the cultural outlook on mental health is still undermined also results in a lack of knowledge and resources. I want to be a part of the movement to change this narrative and be a resource to everyone who needs it, especially those who may feel alone in their mental health journey. Reaching out for help takes courage and is a sign of strength. I am ready and committed to learning about you, working with you, and utilizing all the knowledge and resources that I have if you are also ready for a positive change in your life.
