Counseling for Asian Americans in Oregon and California
In-person and virtual therapy for teens and adults navigating depression, anxiety, cultural identity, and relationship experiences.
Welcome, my name is Jeff.
While growing up in an immigrant home you may have felt the need to keep your feelings to yourself. Your worries and doubts or times of sadness made you believe those were problems that would burden your family. Over time, this has left you feeling resentful, alone, pissed off, or like you have to pretend everything is “fine” even when it’s really not.
Even though you have these feelings towards your family, you still have this desire and hope that your family would know you on a deeper level. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone and you don’t have to sort through it by yourself.
What I can Help With
I’m here to offer professional care, a safe and non-judgmental space, and evidence-based perspectives to help you navigate your therapy journey.
Depression
Depression can feel crippling and it lurks beneath the surface so that nobody else can see what’s going on. It feels lonely under those grey clouds. I’m here to walk alongside you as you reconnect with yourself and find new meaning.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a behind-the-scenes pain causing you to second guess yourself and always worry about worst case scenarios. I’m here to support you as you learn to find strength and resilience.
Men’s Health
Let’s rewrite the script on what strength, courage, and resiliency means through vulnerability and seeking help. Rather than being dragged around by our emotions, I’m here as a guide to help you choose your responses that breaks generational patterns.
Child-Parent Relations
Being a parent is hard! So is being a child of immigrant parents when there are massive cultural differences. I’m here as a guide to help you reconnect with yourself, break generational patterns, and find harmony in your relationships.
