Hi, I’m Chloé Wei, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (Lic#133073). I believe that at our core, we all have a deep need to be seen, heard, and understood. For the past nine years, my work has been rooted in the belief that the relationship between therapist and client is the most powerful tool for healing.

Whether you are navigating the heavy fog of depression, the exhaustion of new parenthood, or the shifting tides of a major life transition, you don’t have to carry it alone. Together, we will create a space where you can feel safe enough to be authentic, vulnerable, and ultimately, empowered.

Therapist

Virtual • California


As a Christian therapist, I walk with clients to strengthen and support them in learning self compassion, understanding their worth, finding insight and living wisely. I have studied psychology and marriage and family therapy for over 13 years and have been in practice as a therapist for 7 of those years. I have intentionally learned and applied principles and practices which help clients sustain growth from hurts, unprocessed feelings and lack of direction toward more energy, enjoyment and purposefulness in life again.

I look forward to consulting with you to see if our therapeutic work would fit with you!

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in community mental health, co-occurring substance use treatment, and residential care settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use challenges, mood disorders, relationship stress, and major life transitions.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected and supported without judgement. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I draw from CBT, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based approaches to help clients build insight, emotional stability, and healthier coping strategies.
