Our minds and bodies are deeply interconnected, and our emotional, physical, and relational experiences influence one another in meaningful ways. We all develop patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, many of which can operate outside of our awareness. While these patterns are often adaptive and protective, there are times when some no longer serve our well-being and those signs may show up in our lives in different ways.
Therapy can offer a supportive space to gently notice and explore these patterns, understand their purpose, and work toward meaningful change to improve quality of life. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to support you in reflection, growth, and skill-building. I take time to listen carefully, understand your goals, and meet you where you are with curiosity and without judgment. You can expect a calm, warm, honest, and collaborative approach in our work together.
I work relationally, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Family Systems approaches, tailoring our work to best support your individual needs. Whether you are seeking deeper insight, stronger coping skills, support through life transitions, or a renewed sense of meaning, we will work together in a way that feels aligned and intentional.
Having lived in different parts of Asia before immigrating to the U.S. at a young age, I am especially passionate about supporting AAPI individuals and immigrant communities, including first and second-generation experiences. My lived experience and clinical work inform a multicultural, open-minded approach focused on providing empowering care that honors your strengths, values, and unique story.

“Nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know…”
I earned my Master of Social Work degree from NYU Silver School of Social Work where I also partake in further specialty training in the Zelda Foster Fellowship in Palliative and End-of-Life Care. I am a licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in the state of New York. In addition, I hold a second Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University, which further informs my clinical perspective and integrative approach to care.
My training has included work with both adult and pediatric populations across medical, mental health, and educational settings. I previously worked as a medical social worker at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where I supported individuals, caregivers, and families navigating blood cancers in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
In addition, I have experience working with children and adolescents in therapeutic settings, including school-based and virtual environments. Earlier in my career, I served as a Behavior Therapist and Interventionist, supporting children on the Autism Spectrum and collaborating closely with families and multidisciplinary teams.
I currently continue my work at Mount Sinai Hospital in an outpatient medical setting, where I provide care management, counseling, resource navigation, and health education to adults with inborn errors of metabolism. In addition, I support pediatric and adult patients and families through the Down Syndrome Clinic.
