Renew Mental Health offers trauma-informed, culturally sensitive individual counseling, including EMDR sessions, for adults through in-person sessions and tele-health. We believe in creating a safe and comfortable environment for healing, where you have the right to exist, be the expert on your own needs, and have the ability to explore tender areas while feeling free of judgment and in control. We enjoy working with people of all backgrounds and welcome individuals from all walks of life (ethnicity, race, religion, gender identity, and sexual orientation.)
When Henry Thoreau gazed at the summer tree and said that “the tenderest fruit needs the tenderest handling,” as a therapist, I believe it's equally true to our mind and our experiences. My role as the therapist is to create a safe and intentional space for you and to lean into the inner strength that may be shadowed by past wounds, present stress, or the hopelessness of the future. My clients include individuals who have experienced trauma, mood disorders, personality disorders, sexuality struggles, or any adjustment issues. It is my passion to support clients of Asian descent and Chinese international students with racial identity and acculturation challenges. My vision for this work is driven by being a first generation Chinese immigrant and my professional experience. When I am not working, I enjoy keeping my egg-laying hens, working on my vegetable garden, biking, and cooking authentic Chinese food for my family.
