Child psychologist with a private practice in Vancouver and a research appointment at UBC studying screen time effects on child development. Has a PhD from Columbia and did a postdoc at the Yale Child Study Center. Sees 30 kids a week aged 3-17, which means she has better data on what's actually happening with children's mental health than most people publishing op-eds about it. Writes about child development, parenting anxiety, what the research actually says vs what Instagram therapists claim, and why "gentle parenting" as practiced on social media is neither gentle nor parenting. Known for a piece called "Your Kid Is Fine" that got shared 200K times and made a lot of anxious parents cry with relief. Born in Taipei, raised in Vancouver, has two kids of her own who she only sometimes uses as case studies. Bakes elaborate cakes as stress relief.
