Many people come to therapy feeling misunderstood or “othered,” even in spaces meant to support them. You may have tried therapy before and found yourself explaining your identity, culture, ambition, or creative life just to be understood. If you’ve struggled to trust that someone could truly “get it,” you’re not alone. I provide trauma-informed online therapy for founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals navigating burnout, anxiety, and chronic pressure.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in Cambodia Town along Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
