I am a LCSW (licensed clinical social worker) with experiences in psychotherapy. I am fluent in English and Mandarin Chinese. Born and raised in Taiwan, I came to NYC more than twenty years ago where I earned an M.S.W. (Master in Social Work) from Columbia University, School of Social Work, with an emphasis on Advanced Clinical Practice. I am licensed in California and New York two states. My clinical experiences accumulate from mental health inpatient and outpatient clinics, Asian mental health community program, school based clinic with adolescents, and various practice working with children and families. As an Asian American psychotherapist, I naturally connect with immigration and acculturation issues that Asian American encounter. And as a parent, I understand the challenge of modern parenting and can provide professional advices.
My practice is located in Berkeley/Albany in Bay Area. Since COVID-19 pandemic, my practice is virtual telehealth therapy and in-person therapy can be arranged if necessary.
