Tijen is such a light. She brings a calm and centered energy to every session and has been incredible at helping me sort things out. Her guidance has made a huge impact on my life and I am so thankful to have found her.

I’ve tried therapy in the past and have been a bit of a skeptic as I’ve not found someone that I felt understood my concerns and aligned with my style. Tijen is amazing - she has a knack for understanding what I am saying and asking great questions that allow me to dig deeper. I always feel much better after spending some time with Tijen.

I had Tijen as my therapist for about 6 months and in that time i made a lot of progress with my struggles. It was so easy to open up to her. I benefitted greatly from talking with her.

Tijen is an amazing therapist and human! She brings such a light of hope into every session I have with her that I feel like anything is possible. I am beyond grateful to be able to have such a wonderful person to help me process and navigate life’s challenges and joys !

Words can’t begin to describe how incredible Tijen is. I was at the lowest point in my life when I first started counseling with her and she helped me in truly immeasurable ways. Session after session she gave me the tools and the map to find myself again. I truly am a changed person and haven’t felt this connected with myself probably EVER. She is impeccably wise and caring and her knowledge and insights are worth their weight in diamonds. Tijen is a gift to this world and we are all lucky to have her.

I feel comfortable telling her everything.
Her tone of voice really helps. I feel like that matters.
