Healing the Inner Child in Asian Americans

Online Therapy in California and Oregon focusing on support, growth, and empowerment

Providing secure, compliant, and accessible mental health services throughout California and Oregon.

Welcome, my name is Jeff.

If you’re an Asian American living in California or Oregon, you may have grown up feeling like you had to keep difficult emotions to yourself. Maybe you’ve carried quiet worries about the future, struggled with feelings you didn’t feel safe sharing, or felt dismissed when you tried to open up to your family. Over time, that can leave you feeling resentful, alone, or like you have to pretend everything is “fine” even when it’s not.

You might feel caught between anger, sadness, and a deep desire for connection. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to sort through it by yourself.

In our work together, my goal is to create a space where you can slow down and make sense of your experiences. We’ll explore what happened in your past, how it affected you emotionally, and the meaning you may have carried forward from those moments. From there, we can work on building self-understanding, self-validation, and the confidence to show up more authentically in your relationships.

For some people, this may eventually include repairing or redefining relationships with family—but only when you feel ready.

Therapy isn’t a quick fix, and it doesn’t have to push you past what feels manageable. Instead, it’s a process of reconnecting with your values, learning to express yourself honestly, and feeling more at ease being who you truly are.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful, supportive space to begin that process, I’d be honored to work with you.
