Have you recently lost someone or something important to you? Grief is our internal response to loss. It's the mix of thoughts and emotions that come up when someone we care about passes away. Our ability to grieve comes from our capacity to both give and receive love. Many of us have heard that we're supposed to "move on" from grief. But the truth is, grief isn't something you just "move on" from. Instead, we incorporate our grief by letting ourselves feel its impact. It's like our grief guides us, rather than us trying to control it. Grief becomes a part of us when we welcome it, rather than trying to put a set time limit on it.

Caring for yourself and others is a draining task. Not only do you spend your days investing in your loved ones, but you also struggle to make time for yourself. This is particularly the case at one's end of life or battle with sever illness. You find yourself not only exhausted, but struggling to think clearly, go to your job, and doubt your decisions. You feel alone and uncertain. In my 20 plus years as a mental health professional, over and over again I see adults looking for a respite from their current lifestyle.

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” (John 1:5) You are created for a purpose and even though the darkness was hard at work, here you are, standing your ground. Well done! I want to come alongside and start this journey of true joy and freedom with you. If you are experiencing dissatisfaction and emptiness due to lack of life-giving fruit in your life, it is time to do things differently. What has worked in the past will no longer work because the Light has come.

Asian Therapists

Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?

A culturally sensitive therapist would be respectful and considerate of different groups, with regard to race, sexual orientation, gender, and other factors that are important to an individual. These considerations can help a client feel understood as well as validated. While some people think highlighting race could promote stereotypes and bias, more understanding and knowledge about cultural differences is a positive for a healthy therapeutic alliance.

How can I recognize an effective Asian therapist?

You can discern a lot by asking how familiar the potential therapist is with different cultures, as well as asking how they might address issues related to identity, values, and beliefs. Also inquire about their education, as well as any particular training they may have completed, such as cultural sensitivity or diversity and inclusion programs.

What if the therapist does not have my exact background?

The therapist may not share a client’s exact background, but the therapist may have plenty of hands-on experience as well as the sensitivity needed for therapeutic progress. Their sensitivity to different populations will help the client feel accepted and comfortable in sharing their concerns and difficulties.

How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Asian clients?

A therapist with an Asian background may have experience within their community, as well as broader cultural sensitivity. Ask the potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share your background. If they have not worked with similar clients, they may well know someone who has such experience.

Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of Asian therapists?

The directory of Asian therapists includes professionals who have shared their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason; also, when the number of therapists identified as Asian is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
