Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Yi, a licensed clinical social worker with extensive experience in helping adolescents and adults overcome a range of challenges. My therapeutic focus includes but not limits to addressing depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family dynamics, and personal growth.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Progress in therapy is not solely about practical problem-solving; it often involves facing deep-seated issues and bearing with uncomfortable emotions. In our therapeutic journey, I'll be there to deeply empathize and provide unwavering support, but you can also expect moments when I challenge you and engage in difficult conversations. I'll be your ally and guide as we navigate these complexities together.

What you can expect from our first session

I firmly believe that each individual's journey is unique, and my client-centered approach is tailored to help you discover your own insights and strengths.
