Finally, a space where you don't have to explain your culture.

For Asians navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship struggles, and the weight of two worlds — therapy that truly gets it, from someone who's lived it.

Hi, I’m Catherine

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in New York City, providing therapy for adults across New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.

I specialize in working with Asian and Asian American clients navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, identity stress, intergenerational family dynamics, and relationship challenges.

My work integrates EMDR and other evidence-based approaches tailored to each person’s emotional needs and goals.

As someone who grew up between two cultures, I understand how isolating it can feel when navigating cultural identity, family expectations, and personal values. This perspective informs my work with Asian and immigrant clients in therapy, creating a space where cultural context is understood without needing explanation.

You Belong Here

As a person who grew up in two distinct cultures, I understand the unique pressures, silences, and strengths that shape the Asian experience. I offer trauma-informed, EMDR-based therapy to help you heal, grow, and reconnect with yourself — in person in NYC or online across NY, NJ, and CT.
