Services I provide

Type of Clients Seen

I provide counseling services to individuals, couples, and families. My therapy approaches are culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, and client-centered. I use a systemic lens in my clinical work, which means I take your relationships with your background, families, or other social environments that might contribute to your problems. I have worked with clients from various backgrounds and faced different challenges.

Individual Therapy

1. Trauma (racial trauma, intimate partner violence, physical violence, medical trauma, etc.)

2. Self-esteem

3. Anxiety

I am trained in EMDR and Internal Family Systems therapy. I also have extensive training to provide integrated care for people who experience trauma.

Couples therapy

1. Communication

2. Pre-marital counseling

3. Attachment issues

With couples, I use Gottman's methods and attachment theory. I provide evidence-based approaches to help infidelity repairment, build better connections, and gain effective communication skills.

I have worked with polyamorous couples to help them explore their expectations and build clear boundaries. I also have worked with interracial couples to navigate different cultural norms that might impact their relationships.

Family therapy

1. Family conflicts

2. Child behavioral issues

3. In-law struggles

Every family has different values and norms. I help families to build understanding toward each other. We would target the challenging behaviors and transform them into helpful roles in your family.

My Qualifications

I earned my PhD degree in Couples and Family Therapy (CFT) from the Texas Tech University. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of Oregon. I have worked in a community mental health agency and have experience in a crisis team helping at-risk youths in the community. In addition to my education and work experience, I devote my time to raising mental health awareness by providing community workshops. My clinical experience is informed by my teaching, supervision, and research. My research focuses on trauma, diversity issues, and social justice.
