Tom is dedicated to catering his counseling to be rooted in evidence based practice with a culturally adapted approach. Tom is a national presenter, scholar, and clinician with extensive experience in areas including children and adolescents, behavioral addictions, trauma, racial identity development, and Asian American mental health.

Tom’s work in education and research is dedicated to addressing the mental health stigma that is prevalent in our communities. Not only does stigma affect our wellbeing but also the relationships that we hold and our ability to feel a sense of belonging in our communities. Tom believes strongly that restorative work includes promoting healthy Oikos (communities/households) through counseling, education, and consultation.
