Synthia Chen

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with experience working with clients in areas of anxiety, depression, cultural identity issues, vocational development, and behavioral challenges. I strive to foster a safe, collaborative, and nonjudgmental experience, empowering clients to navigate toward their goals. I have previous experience working together with clients in an outpatient clinic to pursue their goals and needs. I am fluent in English and have conversational fluency in Chinese (Cantonese).

My approach focuses on fostering growth, empathy, and healing by integrating tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Multicultural/Culturally-informed Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I integrate mindfulness techniques to encourage holistic healing and self-discovery. Each session is tailored to meet my clients where they are at, collaborating with them to help learn strategies to promote growth.

I am committed to providing a safe, culturally sensitive, and supportive environment throughout my sessions. My approach fosters a collaborative and non-judgmental space where clients can openly share their concerns and goals. We will explore your experiences to build compassion, strengthen resilience, and promote a deeper reconnection with your sense of self.

I offer a 15-minute consultation call to ensure a good fit for our therapeutic relationship.
