About

Shen-Shen, founder of Sun & Moon Wellness, sitting in Ollantaytambo, Peru.

I was born in Taipei and grew up in British Columbia, New Jersey, and California. As an immigrant and child of immigrants, navigating different cultures has always been part of my journey. My own healing path has included working through depression, anxiety, and intergenerational trauma in my East Asian family system. These experiences shape the way I hold space: with compassion, curiosity, and culturally-informed care.

I've been guided by Wixárika, Cofán, and Shipibo teachers and trained in psychedelic-assisted therapy, and I support people navigating expanded states of consciousness. I also work as a software engineer. These threads — technical and sacred, analytical and intuitive — meet in how I show up with you.

My Approach

I honor indigenous worldviews where medicine is anything that restores balance—sound, conversation, or connection to community and Earth. Within that worldview, healing isn't about fixing what's broken. It's about growing back into wholeness.

True transformation often happens in the meeting of opposites: light and shadow, joy and grief, body and spirit. The work is learning to stay with both, not to resolve the tension, but to be changed by it.
