Hi there, I'm Yi Ling!

I speak Cantonese and Mandarin and work effectively with diverse individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, impostor syndrome, social anxiety, stress, grief, self-esteem issues, and academic or employment challenges. My goal is to help you feel better about yourself and reach your highest potential.

My focus

I work with single parents, young children, teenagers, young adults, college students, international students, adult re-entry students, and military families. Together, we'll explore ideas and build coping skills to help you navigate life challenges and reach your potential.

My approach

I use person-centered and integrated therapy, drawing from solution-focused therapy, Narrative Therapy, CBT, Somatic Therapy, Art and Music therapy, and Mindfulness Practice. I'm trained in EMDR, Brainspotting, Sand Play Therapy, Gottman Couples Therapy, and Play Therapy to meet your unique needs.
