As a person whose experiences and identities do not fit neatly into categories, I have encountered the challenges of navigating a society that operates on the assumption that ‘one size fits all’ works for everyone. I strive to create a different kind of space in my therapeutic approach. I view therapy as a collaborative process, recognizing that each unique individual requires different kinds of support, which can change over time. I am a multiracial (half white and half Japanese), cisgender, queer woman, with an immigrant parent and firsthand understanding of the complexities of navigating a multicultural family.I will support you in strengthening your coping skills, improving communication and interpersonal relationships, and in making sense of your own story. I have specialized training in multicultural psychology, LGBTQ+ psychology, treatment of trauma, anxiety, and depression.Utilizing intersectional feminist therapy as the framework from which I integrate psychodynamic, relational, and ACT interventions, I will support your journey of empowerment. Valuing the power of the therapeutic relationship, I invite you to schedule a free initial consult to see if I could be the right fit for you. I am now accepting new clients in NYC!
