Cambridge & Beverly, MA

More than just “talk therapy”

Perhaps you can relate…

  • You feel like you lost a part of you because of an adverse childhood experience.

  • Talking to your significant other is just so stressful.

  • You feel “off” or feels triggered.

  • You come from either Asian (or Asian-American) ethnic backgrounds.

  • You have Third Culture Kid experiences or have unique story of adoption.

  • Cancer journey is more than you can bear.

  • You are a parent of LGBTQ child/ren, or you yourself may struggle with sexual identity journey (and how you might fit in) in your faith context.

That’s where Third Space comes in

Welcome to Third Space Therapy & Consulting

As I'm trained in EMDR, IFS and DBT, I specialize in the following issues: social anxiety, depression, trauma (Individual, Family and Racial types). I treat PTSD affecting marriage and parenting.

It may be a cliche to say that the journey to healing can be exhausting. But you don't have to do it alone. I'm here to help reduce your emotional pain. When you're ready, I hope you reach out to unlock your health journey.

My Services

IFS and EMDR therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) are top two evidence-based, holistic trauma modalities of psychotherapy that support deep and lasting trauma healing results.

Marriage & family counseling

Using Gottman’s Couples therapy, and Structural Family Therapy approaches, we work together focusing on attention to healing and communication issues, helping a family unit interact better as a cohesive unit

Consultation

I offer clinical consultation for your practice and coaching for organizational changes for executive faith-leaders.
