Finding Strength Through Life’s Challenges

Life can feel confusing, overwhelming, and even lonely at times—but you don’t have to face it alone. My passion is to help young adults who feel stuck, anxious, or sad, especially during big life changes. Knowing firsthand how tough it can be to manage stress, loss, or anxiety while adjusting to life’s transitions, like having a tough breakup or going through medical trauma when having chronic pain and illness. I provide a safe, welcoming space where you can heal and grow.

As the daughter of Vietnamese refugees, I have a special place in my heart and I am passionate about serving Asian Americans who are working through family challenges and generational struggles. Together, we can work through the tough moments, and understand and heal from the past so you can move forward with confidence.

True healing happens when we take care of our whole selves—mind, body, and spirit. By using traditional therapy along with mindfulness, meditation, movement, and nutrition, you can feel balanced and supported in your journey. Utilizing many other therapeutic tools such as brainspotting, Parts and Memory Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Yoga, helps you to process emotions in a deep and lasting way.

When not working with clients, I love going to live music events, exploring new places, hiking in nature, reading, and enjoying relaxing activities like sound baths and astrology.

As a therapist who truly understands, listens with compassion, and supports you at every step, I am here to help you on your journey! Call today and schedule your first step to a Brighter Tomorrow.
