Hi, I'm Naomi.
Have you followed a prescribed path all your life and find yourself now feeling unfulfilled? Do you wish you could connect to your inner voice more and follow what YOU want, instead of listening to everybody else? Are you starting to realize there is no one right answer, and maybe feeling a bit overwhelmed by how to move forward?
Figuring out what you want and then making it happen can be a long and complicated process. It can be even more difficult to navigate if you often have the experience of being in-between. I support clients in developing a stronger relationship with themselves and learning how to build a meaningful life outside of traditional expectations. I meet you where you are and help you move where you want to go. My specialties include working with cultural issues (especially in Asian/Asian-American families), complex trauma, and life transitions.
Therapy is a collaborative process between real people. I offer a safe place for you to explore, express, and experiment so that you can be more effective in your own life. We will use creative approaches that address you as a whole person, draw on your strengths, and consider the larger influences in your life (family, systems, culture, trauma) and where you fit in.
I am LGBTQ+ and neurodiversity affirming. I am also sex-positive and kink-friendly. I practice through a Buddhist and liberation-oriented lens, meaning that I hope all beings can be free of suffering and oppression.
