Welcome to my profile page! I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Maryland. I hold an extensive background in mental health and career counseling, spanning two decades. My passion lies in providing my clients with a fresh outlook and skills that enable them to thrive personally and professionally.
Being in my 50s, married for 25 years with an adult son, I'm well-versed in the complexities of life issues. Moreover, having lived almost equal time in Asia and the US, I'm familiar with the cultural differences and challenges of adapting to new cultures. Whether you're dealing with life changes, experiencing mental distress, struggling with interpersonal relationship issues, or seeking executive and professional coaching, I'm here to offer my unwavering support.
I believe in a collaborative approach in counseling, and I'm here to assist you in achieving your goals and discovering fulfillment in life. I'm a firm believer in the strength-based approach, where I trust you as the expert on your story and acknowledge that you possess many strengths that can help you overcome life's hurdles. I am committed to supporting you in your journey for mental well-being.
I'm enthusiastic about working with people from different backgrounds.
I look forward to working with you!

I don’t have enough words to emphasize how much Grace helped me. She supported me endlessly through the highs and lows, always checking in on me. She listens so attentively and will even repeat things back to you just to make sure she is hearing your correctly. She is constantly providing both advice, validation, and challenges to help me grow as an individual. She has helped me find the best version of myself. I cannot recommend her enough! I appreciate you, Grace!

Grace is a true professional. I love that she gave practical advise and I never felt judged. She always checked in when I was away for too long, but was respectful of my time and space. She provided guidance and tools that I know will be useful beyond our sessions.
Thank you!
