I specialize in perfectionism, cultural adjustment issues, and parenting a transgender child. I am a licensed psychologist in California (#27680) and also a Professor, Clinical Supervisor, and Researcher. I am also licensed in Illinois (#071.007710) and offer online therapy. I obtained my Ph.D. in counseling psychology from Penn State University and M.A. in clinical psychology from Wheaton College. Prior to becoming a professor, I practiced as a counselor in the U.S. (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) and Taiwan (東華大學). I’ve lived between the United States and Taiwan, which provides me with a deep understanding of cross-cultural issues. I offer therapy both in English and Chinese.
