Michael Ng MFTA

As an Asian American man, I recognize how identities, relationships, and mental health intersect. I didn't grow up with emotional language, so finding mental health therapy in my 20s has been transformational.  As a child of immigrants and a parent myself, I have experienced intergenerational relationships from multiple roles.

Finding the right therapist wasn’t easy for me so I decided to become the therapist who made mental health support more accessible for marginalized communities.

I have special interests in supporting BIPOC folx, gender queer individuals, men, expecting dads, and new dads.

Outside of supporting others in their mental health, I enjoy playing ultimate frisbee and disc golf.
