I believe in honoring your intersecting identities and how they contextualize your experience. As a multicultural/third generation mixed Asian American (Korean/Filipino/white), highly sensitive, queer femme, the question of how to navigate life in the duality has perpetually challenged and inspired me throughout my life, delivering me to this work. I’m passionate about working with clients of marginalized gender, sexuality, and racial identities who are exploring their truths related to culture, race, generation, and queerness. I hope that together we can explore the important intersection of personal transformation and social change.
The tenets of social justice, creativity and trauma-informed care are central to my practice. My work is grounded in an anti-racist, anti-oppressive and multicultural frameworks wherein I integrate Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Therapy and the creative arts in sessions. I fundamentally believe that each person is expert of their life.
In addition to talk therapy, I gently invite clients to explore their full range of expression through art making, storytelling, music, breathwork, and movement; the body can understand truth in ways that words cannot. We will begin wherever you are, however you are able: micro shifts are often trailheads to big transformation.
