Hi, I'm Daniel and I'm all about making mental health as approachable as chatting over coffee.

The beauty of therapy is that the counseling journey is specifically curated for each person. As an Asian-American and queer person who experienced mental health struggles, I understand the importance of having your voice heard and to express yourself without judgment. I want to welcome you into this space that is specifically curated for your needs. Life presents challenges to all of us, and seeking support during those times is a brave and empowering choice. My goal is to create a safe and compassionate space where you feel heard, valued, and understood. Guided by a humanistic approach, I see every individual capable of growth and change.

Do you find yourself feeling chronically stressed, emotionally drained, or unsure why life feels heavier than it should? You may be navigating professional or personal pressures while also grappling with self-doubt, anxiety, or low mood. Even when things appear manageable on the outside, it can feel challenging to make sense of what’s happening or to know how to move forward. Therapy can offer a space to reflect and explore these concerns more intentionally.

I work with clients to gain deeper insight into their emotional experiences and the patterns influencing their thoughts, feelings, and lived experiences. Together, we cultivate a safe and structured environment that fosters trust and supports meaningful reflection. Therapy may involve exploring sources of stress, strengthening emotional awareness, building self-esteem, and developing sustainable coping strategies aligned with your values.

Difficult emotions such as sadness, fear, or frustration can leave us feeling stuck or isolated. In therapy with me, these emotions are approached with care and genuine curiosity, allowing space for open exploration rather than minimization or avoidance. Through a collaborative therapeutic relationship, clients often develop greater clarity, self-compassion, and a clearer sense of direction. If you’re considering therapy and curious about what this process might offer, I would be glad to support you.

1. Born and raised in New York City, I understand the intensity of living in a fast-paced environment where showing up as your best self every day can feel both empowering and overwhelming. In a city that never slows down, it’s easy to forget to pause and care for yourself. My goal is to provide a space where you can do just that with a calm, supportive, and judgment-free environment where you are encouraged to show up as your truest self.

I believe therapy should be a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and understanding. I strive to create an hour that is fully dedicated to you, your needs, and your growth, offering support in a city that can sometimes feel impersonal or isolating. Growth begins with the desire to improve, and we all have areas where we can evolve and heal. Even if you’re unsure where to start or what that looks like for you, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’m here to walk alongside you, helping you navigate challenges, build resilience, and move toward the life you envision for yourself. If you're reading this, I want you to know that I'm proud of you for taking this first step, and I invite you to reach out when you're ready to begin your journey.
