Therapists in Hartsdale, NY

I am a counselor/coach who has long been committed to the health and success of women as they manage different transitions in life, such as transitioning from career professional to working mom, from working outside to staying at home, getting divorced, becoming an empty nester, transitioning back into the workforce after raising your kids, being the primary eldercare giver and adjusting to retirement. These unsettling periods often lead to fear and loss of confidence but they needn't be. We work on practical steps to manage through the transition to get you to where you want to be comfortably.

Hi, I’m Jiexuan, a licensed mental health counselor in New York and New Jersey. I’m glad you’re here. I grew up in China and graduated from Columbia University with a degree in counseling. As an Asian cis-woman, first-generation immigrant, and ally to the LGBTQIA+ community, I deeply understand the challenge of managing minority stress and navigating systematic inequality. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgemental, and compassionate therapy space by bringing my authentic self to the work. I speak Mandarin, English, and Cantonese and have experience providing therapy in all three languages.

In my practice, I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment where a trusting therapeutic relationship can be built. This has been, in my 18+ years of experience, the most effective way to ensure we can do meaningful work to achieve your goals. In this therapy journey, I hope to support and challenge you along the way, working collaboratively to help you live a more fulfilling life. Through my gentle guidance, clients are encouraged to be more open and introspective by identifying goals, becoming more aware of their maladaptive thoughts and behaviors, and empowering them to work towards their needs and wants.

I understand you might feel stuck in the past or the same negative loop and haven’t found any meaningful progress by talking to yourself, your family, or friends. My goal is not only to give you the tools to relieve your symptoms and better cope with specific situations but also to transform your narrative and generate sustainable growth. I use an integrative and tailored approach to meet your needs and cultural values. Combining systemic and relational framework, and mindfulness practice, I’ll help you gain insight into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and align them to achieve what you most value in life.

I am a NY licensed social worker, who completed my education in Boston. I speak both English and Cantonese. As someone who grew up in a NYC traditional immigrant family, hard work was emphasized and taught. These experiences helped me develop a unique bicultural perspective and approach to help people from multiple cultures, different upbringings, or beliefs. I believe it is very important to have a person to talk to and seek guidance from who understands one’s culture and speaks one's language for our everyday conflicts, struggles, or stresses within work, family, education, and community.
