Life is not easy, with all the stress, suffering and challenges, we may need someone who can always be there, listen to us, understand us and guide us through the most difficult times. I believe everyone of us deserves a success and healthy relationships. Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, let's learn and deal with it together!
I am one of the only few licensed mental health counselors/psychotherapists from mainland China, I am dedicated to listen, to understand, and to help people. Being in the field for 10+ years, I have worked in nursing home facility, psychiatric department, community health clinic and psychoanalytic therapy center.
I have helped numerous patients dealing with all different kinds of issues including but not limited to, Marital/Parental/ Relationship problems, ADHD, Eating disorders, Mood/Affect issues, Anxiety and Depressive symptoms, PTSD, video game addiction, stress management, adjustment disorders and personality disorders etc..
