About me
I’m a queer, non binary, Chinese American, international and transracial adoptee, who has grown up in WA. I received my Bachelors in social work at University of Portland and my Masters in clinical social work at University of Washington. I’ve worked in community mental health for five years. My work acknowledges and challenges power, privilege, and systemic injustice. I’m trained in trauma informed therapies such as EMDR, TF-CBT, DBT, and CCPT. I feel honored and energized to be practicing in the place I choose to call home.
I enjoy laying horizontal with a fuzzy blanket, baking vegan treats, and spending time with my partner and our cat.
