Mission

Hello and welcome.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and received my master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Santa Clara University.

My mission is to support and validate you in your lived experiences. I will be your witness and a safe vessel in which to hold your secrets. I aim to support you in your journey of self-actualization.

Goals

My area of clinical interests are working with children, teenagers, adults, and families treating behavioral concerns, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, and individuals who are currently stuck, and want help becoming unstuck. Rather than treating a disorder, my aim is toward treating the whole person. I am bilingual and provide services in both English and Vietnamese.

Our work will be exploring your behavior, thoughts, and feelings to recognize self-defeating patterns and move towards your desired change. Of utmost importance is to provide high quality, evidence-based psychotherapy. I enjoy working in partnership to help you in your journey.

Measure

Using routine outcome monitoring, I track your progress. When you go to a doctor and they measure your height and weight. Therapists cannot read minds so I use this tool to check in on your moods.

Assess

In the assessment, we define the problem you are coming to me for help with. We explore in the recesses of your minds the motivations to work on the issue and how they show up in your life.

Empathy

This phase is about me hearing your story. Everyone has a story to tell and I want to hear it. I want to know what makes you tick. All of your life experiences and the people in it who has shaped you. I want to hear it all.

Tools

Lastly, these are the skills and tools to treat or dial down your mood that the problem creates. My goals is to provide you with all the tools you may need to be able to do this on your own.
