Welcome! I am Owner and Solo Practitioner of Lunar Wave Psychological Services. I provide individual and group psychotherapy, assessment, consultation, training, and resources for adults to improve their mental health and promote overall wellness. As The Soul Doctor and Your Ascension Guide, I am Founder and Spiritual Medium of The Elementals Collective. I help Lost Souls Come Back Home to Self in Sacred Sanctuary with Kindred Spirits -- Together, Catalyzing the Movement to Reclaim Our Humanity.
Beyond the psychotherapy room, I support our community through Mental Health--Holistic Wellness Activism and Personal--Professional Development Mentorship. As an Asian American cis Womxn living with a bipolar (affective) mental health + autoimmune conditions combined with the clinical knowledge base, I speak on bipolar "disorder" from a biopsychosocial--cultural lens in addition to Living Well in a Holistic, Integrative, Humanistic Manner. I am especially invested in supporting our Transitional Aged Youth, Emerging Adults, and Elders of the Asian American & Pacific Islander Diaspora.
Through my Services and Stewardship, I challenge mental health stigma, dismantle barriers to accessing quality mental healthcare, and advance cultural responsiveness in mental practice. More broadly, I empower Individuals and Groups of Marginalized Diverse Identities to Reclaim Our Sovereignty over the Mind, Body, Heart, and Spirit in the face of oppression and systemic abuse.
