I know the journey of life is not an easy one and sometimes we need some help to get through unexpected struggles and get in the way of living a happy and healthy life. I am dedicated to the holistic healing of the mind, body, and soul. Many people describe me as warm, understanding, and down to earth. I pride myself on integrity, commitment, and passion for the work I do as a therapist.
Kini Chang, LMFT has approximately 20 years of experience working with individuals, teens, family, and groups. I integrate creativity and the arts as a means for self expression and reflection in the therapeutic process. I am an artist, dancer, avid traveler, and find creative expression and voice as a platform for deep healing.
I specialize in addressing intergenerational familial trauma/wounding and historical trauma, and interracial couples. Trained in EMDR and Gottman. I also run wellness and therapy retreats throughout the year. I also provide informative podcasts on healthy living, emotional health and wellness. Please contact me to learn more about upcoming retreats.
