I love working with you if you are open to honest conversations! You are someone striving to go further in the world, but sometimes you feel confused and unsure about what is good about yourself, what can be changed, and why you are suffering. You may identify as Asian, an international student, LGBTQ+, or someone navigating the challenges of OPT, H1-B, and the green card journey. That is tough and stressful!

I can personally and professionally relate to everything above, and I am here to help you. My name is Yijie, and I am a psychotherapist specializing in CBT, with additional modalities including, but not limited to, DBT and psychodynamic therapy. I provide a safe space for you, and with my active listening, I am happy to point out what you are doing great and in what areas you can grow. I hope to be there with you while you step on your journey towards self-growth!

I have explored various research articles focused on the aging population, which I found particularly enlightening. These insights gained from this work have significantly informed my practice, in ways of how I approach and support clients who are older adults, addressing the mental health concerns associated with aging and emphasizing the importance of social support systems.

There are unique challenges faced by elderly people, including loneliness, social isolation, family roles, stereotypes and the transition into retirement. I am here, as a young person with my own knowledge, experience, and perspective, to help you go through this transition.
