(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC)
Hi! Seattle Counseling and Wellness is a group practice made up of clinicians from all walks of life who are eager, excited, and skilled to work with you!
I graduated from the Graduate School of Education of the University of Pennsylvania with a master’s in counseling and mental health services (M.S.Ed.) and a master’s in professional counseling (M.Phil.Ed.). I have experience working with adults with diverse backgrounds, providing bilingual services (i.e., Mandarin and English), addressing a wide range of client problems, and managing different platforms for conducting therapy. Personally, as a cisgender lesbian growing up in an Asian society, my experience led me to explore psychopathology and mental well-being layered by sociocultural factors, strengthening my approaches to therapy through an interdisciplinary and multicultural lens. With a strenuous undergraduate psychological research background from Claremont Mckenna College, I believe in evidence-based interventions and research-guided theoretical orientations. My primary school of practice is Schema Therapy, with integrative perspectives from the Internal Family System, Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioral, and Feminist Therapy. My specialties and clinical interests lie in trauma, cross-cultural adjustment, sexuality, grief, interpersonal relationships, etc.
