Do you want to understand your life narratives and your emotions in a sincere, warm, and non-judgmental space? Therapy to me is a shared journey of two travelers along the path of life. We form new narratives while reflecting on the sceneries, encounters, and adventures that we’ve been through. While you are the expert of your journey, I will be the companion who embraces your experiences with you. My background in journalism has informed my approach to therapy to be psychodynamic, narrative, and person-centered. Growing up and forming identities in countries with different cultures, I see intersectionality as a framework to develop understanding and empathy for my clients’ lives. I believe that cultural, racial, sexual, gender, religious, and relational identities form the dynamic building blocks of my clients’ understandings of themselves. I am an Asian cisgender woman who currently lives in New York City. I grew up in Shanghai and Toronto. Prior to becoming a therapist, I studied journalism and used words, videos, and visual art to share minority groups’ voices.
