About
I am Filipinx/Chinese American, queer, and femme. As a third-generation Asian American, I resonate with folx who have questioned their racial identities throughout their lifetime. I have spent many long days and nights negotiating with my identity and self-worth. I have struggled within my relationships and society with not fitting into the molds of what I “should” be. My journey of unlearning the impact of collective generational trauma due to colonization will always be an ongoing journey.
I am deeply passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ clients who identify as Black, Indigenous, People of Color. I work with individuals and relationships. My therapeutic practice aims to provide services through an affirmative and decolonized lens.
