Get in touchI support moms and parents through the changes, challenges, and losses that can come with trying to conceive, pregnancy, and life with a new baby. Some of the experiences we can work through together include:
I specialize in supporting children ages 0–6 and their caregivers. Young children often communicate their emotions and experiences through behavior. When a child is struggling, it can be hard for parents to stay steady when they feel at their wit’s end. I help parents make sense of what their little one’s behavior is telling them about what they need.
Child–parent play therapy gives young children a way to express what they’re experiencing and strengthen their bond with their caregiver. We play, move, create, and rest in connection.
Parents come to see me for dyadic play therapy and parent consultation around issues such as:

Relational Somatic Healing pays attention to what happens between us as we work together. Touch is an optional part of this approach, guided by your comfort and consent.

About
I love my work as a psychotherapist. It’s deeply rewarding to see my clients heal and find more agency in how they live with what hurts.
I am the oldest child of Chinese immigrants. I am a mother. I am a sister and a friend. I love redwoods and dark chocolate. I am a Christian who welcomes clients of all spiritual traditions. I am a pilgrim.
Both! I see clients in the Inner Richmond neighborhood of San Francisco and via a HIPAA-compliant video platform.
My current fee is $185 for each 50-minute session.
I am not contracted with insurance panels. Your plan may reimburse some of the cost of seeing an out-of-network provider. I can provide an invoice, also called a superbill, for you to submit to your insurer.
