Why work with us?

| → | We believe in an inclusive approach to healing that includes both respecting traditional Asian values and embracing modern therapeutic practices. |
| → | Our therapists are also members of the Asian community who can provide words for the intergenerational struggles that sometimes can’t be explained. |
| → | We understand the unique challenges faced by second-generation Asian Americans navigating the complexities of generational trauma and multiple cultural identities. |
| → | We also experience the stigma of mental health, the burden of the model minority myth and the unrealistic expectations and cultural norms that we carry. |
| → | Our goal is to guide you to move closer to a truer way of life and empower you to honor your past wounds in order to move forward. |

Testimonials
My therapist is so passionate and genuinely shows interest in anything you tell her. Therapy with them feels like talking to a best friend. Her style of therapy is laid back, there are no awkward robotic questions or constant jotting down in a notebook, she genuinely and actively listens and reciprocates the energy in conversation, I genuinely feel calmer after talking to her. I would definitely recommend looking into her practice!

My therapist’s therapy style has been instrumental to getting me to the place I am today. I appreciate her cultural awareness as I navigate through the Asian-American experience, especially being the eldest daughter of immigrants. She is supportive, non-judgmental, and one of the best therapists I have had the pleasure working with. I enjoy the support, the encouragement, and the moments of reflection she gives me to understand my mind and the world around me.

I have had a great experience working with my therapist at Alvarado Family Therapy. They are continually patient during our sessions and allows me to vent about what I have been going through. She often is able to recollect what I’ve told her in the past and helps me find clarity in making sense of my emotions, which makes me feel seen and heard.
My therapist provides a healing space during sessions where she allows you to vent about your experience, asks great questions to help you process these experiences, and is insightful about providing feedback.
