In decolonial work, they often say that the loss of land is the first and deepest wound. The way I carry this into therapy is through the belief that we're all trying to find our way home.
As the child of Taiwanese immigrants, my life has been shaped by developmental and intergenerational trauma, the loss of a parent in my early twenties, and the realities of racial and spiritual trauma across personal, institutional, and systemic contexts. These experiences continue to shape how I understand my relationship with myself, others, and with the communities that I identify with, including the generations who came before and those who will come after. Those relationships also ground my work as a therapist. I believe healing ripples outward: when we heal, we can offer rest to our ancestors, greater presence to the people we love, and hope to future generations.
I strive to create a courageous space where we can make sense of your experiences through both personal and systemic lenses, release what was never yours to carry, and cultivate a gentler, more liberating relationship with yourself. My approach integrates somatic therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and liberation psychology within a warm, trauma-informed, and decolonial framework that honors your lived experience and how your nervous system has been shaped by the broader systems we survive under.
I'm especially passionate about working with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities navigating intergenerational trauma, identity, grief, and the everyday weight of living in systems not built for us. Whether you're seeking support around a specific challenge or simply longing for a place to breathe, process, and reconnect with yourself, I'll walk alongside you with curiosity, compassion, and care.
When I am not working, you can find me writing flash fiction and other essays, adventuring somewhere new in Austin with my family, or scouting out my next dumpling spot. I also enjoy running, reading fiction and watching movies, TV shows, and anime as ways to relax.
