Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Jessy Dong (they/them), a queer, nonbinary, Asian psychotherapist. Using approaches like Gestalt, IFS, and mindfulness, I’m here to help you with identity exploration, joy discovery, and setting healthy boundaries. I have a particular focus on supporting those from diverse backgrounds, including Asian immigrants and individuals facing systemic oppression. I’m also trained in kink-, poly-, and trans-affirming care, as well as sex therapy, so you can freely explore any topics that are important to you.

My approach to therapy

I take a personal and direct approach, focusing on creating a warm and curious space for our work together. In our sessions, we'll explore how your past and future influence the present, aiming for genuine connection and holistic growth. Whether you join individually or as part of a couple, I'm here to support you in a way that feels both collaborative and authentic.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, I'm flexible and start with whatever you bring. I'll ask questions to get to know you better, but there's no pressure to share more than you're comfortable with. My aim is to create a space where you can explore your authentic self at your own pace.
