Therapists Available for Telehealth and In-Person Treatment in Long Beach and Newport Beach

I became a therapist because I believe in the power of early support and healing. Throughout my work in outpatient clinics, IOPs, and residential treatment centers, I’ve seen how much children can grow when given the right tools in a safe, supportive environment. These experiences inspired me to specialize in child and family therapy—where I can meet kids where they are developmentally and help them feel seen, heard, and understood. My background in trauma-focused care and family systems allows me to create individualized approaches that integrate play, emotional expression, and family involvement. Whether working with a four-year-old or a teen, I’m passionate about helping children build resilience and thrive, both in therapy and in life.

Growing up in China and moving to the United States has given me a unique perspective as a therapist. My personal experiences have provided me with valuable insights into the challenges of acculturation and the importance of embracing cultural diversity. This background has also deepened my empathy, allowing me to better understand the specific struggles individuals face when seeking therapy in a new cultural context.

As a therapist, I bring curiosity, empathy, and a sense of fun to my work, creating a space where clients can explore their unique worlds and make meaning of their experiences. With a background in geosciences, I’ve always been fascinated by discovery—whether it’s exploring landscapes, diving into video games, learning new languages, or building connections within the Long Beach community.

My journey into therapy began after experiencing the life-changing impact of counseling myself. As a queer, non-binary individual, I saw the need for more representation and understanding within mental health spaces. I’m passionate about supporting individuals with intersecting identities who may feel underserved or disconnected from traditional systems of care. My mission is to provide a safe, affirming environment where all clients can feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow.

Let’s work together to navigate your path to healing and self-discovery.

Speaks English and Spanish

As a therapist, I prioritize fostering a strong therapeutic connection while creating a safe environment for individuals to explore their narratives and aspirations. As a therapist who identifies as queer, I am attuned to the impact of societal structures on personal experiences. I employ a blend of empathy, humor, and collaboration to delve into the stories we encounter, emotions we often suppress, and repetitive patterns we find ourselves in.

I value incorporating clients' diverse identities and interests, such as music and media, into our sessions, empowering them to align with their authentic selves rather than societal norms

I take an integrative approach to therapy with an emphasis on a client-centered approach to build rapport and meet the needs of my clients. This allows me to utilize unconditional positive regard, not only do I provide a judgment-free space, but I strongly believe in my clients’ own ability to overcome their challenges. I specialize in working with trauma survivors, anxiety disorders, and relationship-based issues. Also, as a member of the LGBTQA+ community, I feel I have a lot to offer in the way of supporting and connecting with clients who are also a part of the community.

In assisting clients with acceptance and authenticity, I use a self-compassion approach. To be compassionate is to treat the self with kindness in response to struggle. Many of us were not taught to be loving to ourselves during moments of suffering. Far too often, we develop a self-critical voice rather than a self-compassionate one. Instead of self-compassion, we often experience feelings of guilt and shame. I work with my clients in extending loving kindness towards the parts of themselves that carry shame.

Something that makes me unique as a therapist is that, in my own practice of authenticity, I embrace the parts of me that are considered alternative. I do not hide my tattoos, my piercings, and the other things that connect me to the darker side of myself. I have heard from many clients who also consider themselves alternative that they have struggled to find a therapist that looks like them. I love that I can provide a non-judgmental and safe space for others who feel like they are outcasts within the norms of society.

Speaks English and Spanish

I use a therapeutic approach that integrates psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and humanistic models to best meet the needs of my clients depending on where they are at in their mental health and the issues they want to address.

My experience as a Chinese American woman and my previous career in social justice education have provided me with the knowledge of how the oppressive structure of our society contributes to people’s internal and external conflicts and the impact of current and historical trauma on our sense of self and sense of belonging. 

Being in my 50s, I bring a lifetime of insight and experience to my work with clients that allow me to both relate to my clients and guide them to identify their strengths and understand how to build upon them to heal and grow as a healthy person.
