Mandarin Therapists in Bee Cave, TX

你是否总感觉你的生活被过去绑架，还有那些缠着你的糟糕记忆？你是否有过这样的经历，总是被焦虑、抑郁情绪还有自我怀疑像暴风雨一样无情地席卷而过？你是否有过在异国他乡，体会形单影只，孤独感爆棚的时候？你是否有过，不知道如何处理内心对中西方文化的冲突？你可能常常会困惑为什么总是在原地打转，毫无进步。你是否知道你的叙事可能正深深地影响着你如何看待你自己。你甚至可能异常疲惫你头脑里总有停不下来的苛责声。

你是否因为因为亲密关系、原生家庭、或朋辈职场而烦恼不堪？是否被曾经的创伤纠缠无法摆脱？是否有过心跳怦怦、出汗发抖、无法集中精力的不适体验？是否在异国他乡难以找到自己的位置？是否尝试过了所有方法却感觉仍在原地打转？又是否因此陷于挫败和自我怀疑而难以振作？

I enjoy working with clients struggling with history of trauma including sexual trauma, physical trauma or emotional trauma. My focus in therapy is to improve symptoms of depression, anxiety and PTSD. I grew up in China and I have lived in the United States for the past 10 years. I speak both Chinese and English and my multicultural background help me understand clients better thus, making progresses easier.

I am a bilingual therapist (fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin) licensed in both Texas and New Jersey. I work collaboratively with my clients – individual, parents, couples, and families – using a relational, humanistic and client-centered therapeutic approach. As a culturally-competent and trauma-informed therapist, my priority is to create a non-judgmental, compassionate, safe, and inclusive space for all my clients. I am passionate about helping individuals recognize their possibilities, inner strengths and feel empowered.

您是否觉得在生活中您应该比现在有更多的成就？您对当前的生活状态感到不满意，但是您不知道应该往哪走。 也许您想追求自己多年前的梦想，但是却找不到勇气。 也许您对当前的工作不满意，但是您感到很安逸，所以不想改变。 您甚至有时候会觉得改变为时已晚，而且随着时间的流逝，您感觉自己对生活的热情和目标感正在逐渐消失。您可能还会发现自己有时候无法很好的与爱的人有连接。

育儿是一场修行，这个过程绝对是幸福与值得的。如果您正感到疲惫，困惑，无助，或者被误解，你绝对不是孤立无援的一个人。当一个小孩也是一件不容易的事情，你不断试图理解在你的小世界和大世界中发生的事情，而你的身体和大脑仍在努力学习并且掌握它们的发展任务。每个孩子都应该有一个安全和中立的空间，来理解和感知他们的经历，处理对他们来说重要的事情。每个父母也都应该得到最温暖和感同身受的支持，不带有任何评判，从内心深处发掘出早已蕴含的强大力量来重建和改善家庭关系，从而支持孩子的成长。

Are you stressed out, depressed, confused, or in transition? Are you new to the university or the U.S.? Do you feel different from others? Do you believe you are not achieving your potential due to anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, or some other obstacle? In our work together I will help you connect with your strengths so that you can do what you do best. I work from a collaborative, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral and integrative perspective. I pay close attention to social and cultural factors. I am pragmatic in my approach to help my clients reach their goals. I provide counseling in Mandarin Chinese and Taiwanese.

My name is Irwin Tang, LPC, and I will help you change your life by changing your habits. I seek substantial results within the first weeks of counseling. I base my methods on proven cognitive-behavioral theory, but also less intuitive concepts like the pleasure principle. I am of course also happy to listen to you vent, complain, cry, and laugh.

With a decade of experience in the mental health field, I have garnered comprehensive expertise in counseling treatments, assessment strategies, and crisis intervention skills. My professional background includes working with diverse patient populations, ranging from individuals dealing with serious mental illness, developmental delays, and personality disorders to those experiencing challenges related to anxiety, depression, PTSD, as well as situational distress and adjustment issues. This wealth of experience positions me to offer nuanced and practical support to individuals facing a broad spectrum of mental health concerns.

Seasons change and people change. Regardless of age, gender, and status, we all encounter challenges and difficulties throughout different stages in life. I help clients re-discover who they are, reclaim their lives, rebuild relationships that are meaningful to them, restore balance and satisfaction in life, reach insight and problem solve, or get to where they want to be. You determine the nature and amount of change you wish to make. I believe that helping people recognize and hone in their strengths can create new possibilities for action and new directions in life.

I have over 14 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families, and I teach the practice and research of marriage and family therapy at a local university as an associate professor. I firmly believe that you are doing the best you can and your struggles do not define who you are, and my focus is on helping you pinpoint what is keeping you from having satisfying relationships and achieving your full potential. In close consultation with you, I aim to help you devise strategies to improve your life quality and satisfaction.

Do you feel like your relationship is stuck? Or like every conversation turns into the same fight over and over? Does it feel like a recent life change messed up a good thing? Maybe your relationship with your kid is getting harder and harder. Or your kid’s just a ‘turd.’ Does it sometimes feel like your emotions are controlling you? The good news is, these feelings are very common. Most of us get stuck in patterns that seem to get in the way of where we want to go. We develop those patterns without even noticing; one day we just notice things aren’t like we want them to be.
