Therapists in Greeley, CO

離鄉背景是所有移民者、國際學生、跨國企業者所面對的現實生活。也許是為了夢想、理想、或家人。無論如何跨越文化及國度的遷移是一個不斷增長的現象。 但離開自己的家鄉、國度、拋棄社會文化的支持，遷移至一個遙遠的異鄉是有許多挑戰的。到了異國，不一定就具有公民身份，也會因為權利及社會地位的改變，就算有了公民的份資格也不一定感到安逸會過得舒適的生活體驗。畢竟離鄉背井者既看起來不像當地人，亦擁有自己母語、口音、文化、省美觀等等與當地人不同的地方。 心理研究顯示離鄉背景者需要額外的努力和用心，才能渡過/克服種種不適，如：社會危機、中西文化、政治理念和價值觀的衝突、及自我文化認同（含家庭觀念、關係）該如何面對與整合。 除了文化差異議題外，個體與當地人一樣也有面對到自己或家人患得心理疾病或面對生命無常、重大心理壓力的情況。

Have you been feeling stuck and are ready to feel empowered again? My first step as a psychotherapist is to meet the client where they are at in any given phase in treatment. I build rapport through my sense of warmth and empathy. The next step is to provide reflections so that the client can gain self-awareness and clarity, identifying patterns and understanding how systems and cultural factors have influenced the messages we have received throughout our lives. With this gained knowledge, the goal is to identify what has no longer been serving us so that we can reach empowerment and self-efficacy.

My passion as a therapist is to assist you in developing skills to help you find the happiness and abundance from within.

Let's be honest; it's HARD to find a culturally sensitive therapist who understands what it's like to navigate life as a person of color, especially in the state of Colorado. How do you explain your deep love and respect for certain aspects of your culture while at the same time, acknowledge your disdain for the harmful parts of it? How do you sort through the trauma of not having your emotional needs met as a child while still feeling grateful for your parents' best attempts at loving you? How do you process the desire to assimilate into the dominant culture while not wanting to fully abandon important elements of your identity?

Is your relationship stuck in the same pattern and you two are losing hope? Do you want more trust, connection and intimacy? Are you depressed, anxious, stressed, struggling with addiction or repeating patterns that lead you down to the same dead end? As a Certified Sex Therapist (CST) through AASECT, and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I specialize in working with married & unmarried couples and individuals from all gender identity and sexual orientations. I help clients heal from intimacy/sexual issues, communication issues, depression/anxiety, infidelity, sexual trauma, mismatched sexual desires, sexual dysfunctions, gender identity and sexual orientation concerns. I am a LGBTQIA friendly and Kink aware therapist.

If you're feeling the weight of societal pressures and struggling to find your authentic self, know that you're not alone. I've been there too.

Let's dig deep, unravel those ingrained beliefs, and discover the strength and acceptance you deserve. It's time to embark on a transformative journey towards personal growth and empowerment. You've got this, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.

Have you struggled with feeling out of place? Feeling lost or overwhelmed with your day-to-day? Never feeling like your trauma or past adverse experiences lets you breathe? I would love the opportunity to chat and work with anyone that is ready to address traumas, pain, or suffering they're currently experiencing. I believe that everyone deserves to thrive, but sometimes we need some support and help getting there. I have particular interest in helping with navigating masculinity, intersectionality, identify development, self-worth, and distress tolerance.

I am grateful you are embarking on this journey! Growing up as an artist and spending most of my early play time in nature, I learned to embody nature through making art. I describe myself as a culturally attentive, gentle, and contemplative therapist with the intention of helping you to fully uncover your authentic self. Using a combination of play, art-making, and somatic-based therapy, I aim to help young children and adolescents express and release parts of themselves more freely.

Stressors related to work, relationships, medical conditions and other key areas of life occur every single day, and sometimes they may become overwhelming and out of control. Most of the time, we are able to help ourselves out of these types of situations, but there are times when it is too challenging to handle alone. When that happens, we often find ourselves stuck and unable to react, or continue to use solutions that may not be the best for us. It can be very draining and demotivating, and spiraling out of control. We sometimes want someone to find a solution for us, while at other times, we just want someone to listen to us.

I believe people come to counseling to seek a different, or better, way of approaching the challenges that life brings. You believe you can be a better version of yourself. You feel there’s a better way to approach your past and future so you can more fully experience the present. I am here to help you dive into that. Together, we can learn to embrace all the experiences that shape you. We can set you on the path to living a fulfilling and satisfying life that moves you towards your values.

Lately, emotional pain seems to be dictating your life and controlling almost everything you do. It's frustrating, overwhelming, and seemingly endless. It sucks. You try to keep busy to avoid it, but as soon as there is a brief pause in activity: while you wait at a red light, or lay in bed wide awake in the middle of the night, or settle in your chair for a moment of rest, that excruciating feeling creeps back in. it's so intense and deafening. You have nowhere to hide from it and no power to control it. You have tried the old ways to manage it, but they have stopped working like before.

I am a therapist and psychologist speaking both English and Mandarin Chinese. I strive to help children, adolescents, and adults achieve their goals and be happy with who they are. I have helped many families with IEP-related evaluations and issues, including learning disabilities, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and personality disorders. I have also helped couples overcome relationship issues including cultural and linguistic barriers. In therapy, I explore the discrepancy between what you want and what you need. You identify what you need, I will help you get there.
