About
Aaron
I am skilled at listening, asking effective questions, and inviting clients to examine their presenting concerns or struggles in a safe and supportive way. I specialize in relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, parenting, the psyche of current and former athletes, and themes of race and cultural identity. I identify as multi-racial and Asian American. I am interculturally responsive and inclusive. My therapy practice affirms intersectionality and the complex identities of the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities.
Outside the clinical setting, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing sports, and dabbling in music.
