My name is Kai Sien, and I strive to create a supportive and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts or concerns. I am from Malaysia and I have worked with culturally diverse populations with an emphasis on the Asian/Asian American community. My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and commitment to fostering a warm and inviting space where you will feel heard, understood, and valued. I have worked with individuals who have experienced anxiety, depression, stigma about mental health, stress, suicidal ideation, trauma, grief and loss, anger issues, self-esteem concerns, and more.

My ideal client hopes to discover the underlying root of their symptoms and behavior and wants to harness a new understanding to move forward and better cope with the world around them. I offer individual therapy, as well as psychological assessments, to children, teens, and adults. If you are looking for a clinician who is empathetic, direct, and recognizes the therapeutic process is subjective, I may be a great fit for you.

I believe services related to mental health should be as normal and attainable as those related to physical health. Science, with a personal and creative flair, should drive these services. I completed a MSW, with a concentration in mental health, from Washington University in St. Louis. During this time I was able to specialize my education and training experience to best fit the role of a mental health therapist. I am able to work with individuals ranging from five years and up, and can address most mental health needs by utilizing a variety of practice models. The role of trauma and traumatic stress is a special area of practice.

As a counselor, I believe in the profound similarities between a kaleidoscope and mental health. Like a kaleidoscope revealing vibrant patterns, I honor your unique experiences, emotions, and perspectives. I acknowledge mental health's ever-changing nature and will guide you through highs and lows with compassion. Each session is a chance for discovery, uncovering insights and coping strategies for personal growth. I understand the complexity of human emotions, offering empathy as we navigate your journey together. Your individuality is celebrated, just like the diverse beauty in a kaleidoscope's patterns.

Therapy is a journey; my role is simply to walk with you as you navigate the stressors and complications of life. It is my goal to provide a secure and healing environment in which you can begin the process of restoring the person you wish to be. I believe you are worthy of an unbiased, safe and productive opportunity to process your experiences.

I have a decade of clinical practice experience in the areas of trauma, depression and anxiety. I strive to help individuals process their experiences, explore emotions, and learn ways to cope with stressors to improve their quality of life. I am meeting clients in-person and by telehealth. I am accepting clients aged 13 and beyond who want to work on positive change to achieve personal life goals, improve health, and improve relationships.

Changing your life can be scary. And after you make the changes, it can be difficult to keep them in place. But know you are not alone in your journey towards feeling better. You can create your ideal life by practicing tools to calm anxiety, reduce stress, and deal with the pressure you may be feeling from everyday life.

Love and Connection in life should not be confusing. But there is always a risk when it comes to getting those two critical human relational needs. Many times relationships feel like a dance, and feeling lost with no road map? It can often turn into division or discomfort, but does it always have to be that way? Emotionally Focused Therapy is a proven, evidence-based method that enhances couples' ability to gain Love and Connection through safety and security. And I would love to be that resource, coach, advocate to help teams sustain longevity in their relationship without leading to isolation or further hurt.

There’s a path to finding more balance, peace, and joy and it all starts with finding a therapist that fits your unique needs; one that can help you live a more fulfilled and happy life.

I focus on treating individuals, couples and families in pursuit of relief from various emotional, behavioral and relational struggles. I seek to empower clients as they reshape and restore their lives following emotional hurts, changes in mood, traumas and other life-altering circumstances. I'm committed to assisting clients as they build identity, live with integrity and achieve sustainable change. I desire to journey with clients as they gain personal insights, practice self-compassion and step into their individual strengths in order to reach a space of hope, healing and harmony with self, others and society.

I have twenty years of professional experience in the substance abuse field that includes diverse populations in various community settings including women's issues, homelessness, LGBTQ, domestic violence, medication-assisted treatment and co-occurring mental health. I have worked with a variety of topics and prefer working with individuals and families specific to trauma and abuse, positive parenting, grief and life transition, coping with chronic illnesses, substance abuse and self-esteem issues. I have developed a strong belief in the necessity of addressing the family system as a whole in order to develop lasting changes.
