Hi! I'm Wen. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. I help adults who are struggling to deal with everyday stressors and burnout. I empathetically listen to what you have to share and want to fully understand your situation before working collaboratively on solutions. I consider myself a direct person and try to break down the concepts that I teach into easily understood ideas.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Clients should expect me to be the authentic version of myself. I have been often told that there is a presence about me that makes them more open to sharing.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
AS a therapist, I am very direct and teach using a lot of metaphors. I consider myself pretty good at reading between the lines of what you are saying and not saying. I am also great at summarizing what I am hearing as the major themes of our conversation.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I believe in fully understanding your experience and actively listening before offering ideas to you. The best clients for me are those who are new to therapy or prefer someone to be direct with them.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a highly effective approach for addressing anxiety, depression, and trauma-related challenges. With extensive experience in helping clients identify and reframe negative thought patterns, I focus on empowering individuals to develop healthier coping strategies and achieve lasting change. In my practice, I tailor CBT techniques to each client's unique needs, incorporating practical exercises like thought journaling, behavioral activation, and mindfulness to foster self-awareness and emotional resilience. Whether you're seeking to overcome stress, improve relationships, or regain a sense of balance, I can guide you toward your goals using proven CBT strategies.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have extensive experience using Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help clients navigate emotional challenges, build healthier relationships, and improve their overall well-being. DBT focuses on balancing acceptance and change, and I incorporate its core skills—mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness—into my practice. I work collaboratively with clients to develop tools for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive behaviors, and creating meaningful connections with others. Whether you're struggling with emotional dysregulation, stress, or interpersonal conflicts, I provide a supportive environment to help you build the skills you need to thrive.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy, a powerful approach that helps clients develop greater self-awareness, reduce stress, and live more balanced lives. Drawing from evidence-based techniques, I guide individuals in cultivating present-moment awareness and acceptance of their thoughts and emotions. In my practice, I incorporate mindfulness exercises such as guided meditations, breathwork, and grounding techniques to help clients manage anxiety, depression, and trauma. By fostering a deeper connection to the present, clients can gain clarity, build resilience, and create meaningful change in their lives. Whether you're seeking inner calm or greater emotional balance, mindfulness therapy can be a transformative path forward.
