Daughter of Chinese refugees, second generation Canadian and located in Richmond, California on Ohlone land. I am bisexual, cis gendered, and a complex trauma survivor.
My approach is deeply affirming, collaborative and practical. As a mental health coach, I work relationally with my clients in a space based on respect and compassion. I am continuously acknowledging and working through my own implicit biases, privileges, and limitations and hold this as essential to the work I do with clients.
I am committed to helping you become empowered in your healing process as we explore the things in your life that feel stuck and no longer helpful. I will help you understand and work through those patterns to make way for meaningful change.
I also have extensive personal experience with non-ordinary states of consciousness. I have received significant healing and growth through these explorations and bring an embodied understanding of how I can support others to integrate their psychedelic experiences.
