Your Local Marriage and Family Therapist - Here to Guide You
We are not fully healed
Nor fully wised
Still searching for our path,
But what truly counts
Is that we're growing each day

"I am bent but not broken. I am scarred but not disfigured. I am sad but not hopeless. I am tired but not powerless. I am angry but not bitter. I am depressed, but not giving up." -Anonymous
About Therapy
The American Psychological Association states that “Psychologists, therapists, and counselors help people of all ages live happier, healthier, and more productive lives.” I aim to guide you in developing life-changing habits using various psychotherapy techniques and collaborative treatment approaches. Our sessions will help you embrace life and align your values with meaningful, transformative change.
Have a particular life obstacle you’re trying to overcome? Sometimes, seeking help from a therapist is the best way to put things into perspective. As a committed, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, your well-being and mental strength are my number one priority.

I am a first-generation Lao-American. I was born in Nakhon Phanom, a province in northeastern Thailand. My mom is from an ethnic tribe known as Phu Thai, and my dad is from Khonxedone, Laos. My parents immigrated to the United States when I was four years old. I speak my native language, Lao and Thai.
Therapeutic Approach
As a humanistic therapist, my approach is grounded in believing that each person has the innate ability to grow and change. I provide clients a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their inner experiences and emotions. My client-centered approach is based on the understanding that you are the expert in your life. By listening and validating your experiences, I empower you to accept and understand your emotions and thoughts. I work with you to develop psychological flexibility, learn new ways of relating to your thoughts and feelings, and find meaning in difficult times.
I hold a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington. I have received certification in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and evidence-based models for treating depression, anxiety, and behavioral problems. I have certification as an ADHD-CCSP Clinical Service Provider. I've completed Level 2 Training in Gottman Methods Couples Therapy and am a Prepare and Enrich Facilitator, working with couples to identify the dynamics and complexities of their relationships.
I am a American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) member.
