Provider information
Description
I specialize in art therapy and am fluent in both Mandarin and English. My intersections as a bi-cultural, Taiwanese, first-generation immigrant woman give me insight into how cultural factors influence personal, relational, intergenerational, and systemic aspects of the human experience. As someone who continues to navigate and heal through interpersonal, familial relationships and intergenerational trauma, especially within the context of transitioning between cultures, I understand the challenges and pain my clients may be experiencing. I see you and hope to support you on your journey.

Summary
Are you in a season of struggle and looking for clarity and change? Please know that this journey doesn't have to be taken alone. When alongside a trusted other, healing is possible. Together we can uncover unhelpful patterns, process difficult emotions, and become more deeply connected to ourselves. At Heart to Art Therapy, we believe the therapeutic process is non-linear and there is no one approach or modality for all since we all have unique stories. We will walk alongside you and help find what best suits you while considering your strengths, needs, and goals.
