You might look like you have it together on the outside — high-achieving, thoughtful, responsible, always pushing through — but internally feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in cycles of perfectionism, people-pleasing, burnout, or self-criticism.
I work with individuals and couples who:
Struggle with ADHD, executive functioning challenges, or feeling constantly “behind”
Experience anxiety, shutdown, stress, emotional overwhelm, or burnout
Feel caught in perfectionism, masking, avoidance, or people-pleasing patterns
Want healthier relationships but fear rejection, conflict, or emotional vulnerability
Are navigating Autism, neurodivergence, identity, or cultural pressures
Feel disconnected from themselves despite appearing successful on paper
Many of my clients want to stop overthinking everything, feel more emotionally grounded, and build relationships where they can show up authentically without constantly abandoning themselves in the process.
My approach is attachment-based, trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and anti-oppressive. Rather than viewing your struggles as something “wrong” with you, we’ll explore how your patterns may have once helped you survive, protect yourself, or stay connected to others. From there, we can begin building strategies and emotional tools that actually support the life and relationships you want.
Together, we may work toward helping you:
Better understand your emotions, nervous system, and relationship patterns
Reduce shame and self-criticism
Improve communication and emotional connection in relationships
Build healthier boundaries without guilt
Create systems and strategies that work for your brain
Feel more confident, grounded, and emotionally safe
My therapeutic approaches include:
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
EMDR
Coherence Therapy
Somatic Therapy
Polyvagal-informed Therapy
As a Vietnamese person who moved to Canada in my early teens, I understand firsthand the complexities of navigating multiple cultures and identities. I bring a culturally-aware lens to my work, particularly with BIPOC clients, so you don’t have to leave parts of yourself at the door to feel understood.
As a neurodivergent therapist myself, I’m committed to creating a therapy space where you don’t have to mask or perform. In our sessions, you’re welcome to fidget, move around, avoid eye contact, sit however feels comfortable, or simply show up exactly as you are.
I offer therapy in both English and Vietnamese and would be honoured to support you.

I am a 2SLGBTQIA+ affirming space, committed to inclusive, culturally responsive care.
