My counseling approach is a blend of person-centered, existentialism, social justice, family systems theory, and feminism. My educational background in family system theory, coupled with my experiences growing up in Taiwan and pursuing my master’s degree in Fresno, California, has equipped me with a broad perspective to understand my clients’ situations.

Recognizing the diversity in family beliefs, rules, cultural backgrounds, and languages, I appreciate the impact these factors can have on individuals. How people adapt, conform, or dissent from their norms can lead to diverse outcomes. Through years of practice, I’ve observed that many clients find themselves cast into the role of scapegoats within their families, relationships, workplaces, and society, trapped in a challenging position that is difficult to escape. This situation often entails significant injustice and unfairness.

During counseling sessions, clients discover their own strength, experience personal growth, clarify their vision, and reclaim their personal power. I am consistently impressed by their ability to tap into hidden resources within themselves, enabling them to address the problems they bring to the sessions and overcome challenges they once believed insurmountable.
