Crystal Fong

My name is Crystal, a Chinese-American therapist dedicated to increasing representation and awareness for Asians/BIPOC in the mental health field. If you've experienced multicultural identity crisis, intergenerational or racial trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, depression or self-esteem issues, I relate and am here for you.

I received my master's in counseling from NYU. Prior to that, I worked in corporate and start-ups for several years but decided to switch into therapy to help clients in a more meaningful way.

I believe the foundation of therapy is genuine connection, collaboration, and being culturally informed. Especially for those with immigrant backgrounds that carry mental health stigma, I aim to provide a safe space where you can explore your identities and share your authentic self. I provide a person-centered, integrative approach drawing from psychodynamic, CBT, trauma-informed/EMDR, dance movement therapy, human-animal bond, and Gottman method for couples counseling.

As a result of my approach, you will have a deeper understanding of who you are, how you relate to others, and how you relate to yourself. I will help you develop healthy coping skills to navigate both short and long-term stressors.
