Are you feeling stuck, unworthy, unmotivated or hopeless? You have goals and you try to move forward, because you know you have a lot to offer, but something always seems to get in the way of your career and your relationships. You feel like you are never enough, like you don’t belong. You wonder how things would be different if you were white, straight, able-bodied or cis-gendered. Every piece of self-help advice you read must be filtered through the lens of being marginalized and having less privilege. You wish someone could understand you. You know logically how you “should” feel and you try to cope, but you find that you just can’t change by willpower alone. It is not that you lack the willpower at all, it is something else. How you talk to yourself matters. A few logistical things to mention. I'm not currently taking new clients, but will open up at some point in June. Please remain in communication with scheduling. If you book yourself, be aware that I may need to change the appointment to find a time if I'm not free. (Grow calender isn't always up to date with my other calenders.) Please complete any intake paperwork prior to your appointment.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I go over typical informed consent info and then I would ask you what you are specifically looking to work on in therapy. I introduce the modalities I feel are relevant and help you set goals and expectations for therapy.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My name is YanLin Tso. I am an Asian-American therapist who identifies as non-binary, transmasculine and uses he/they/them pronouns. I specialize in working with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color as well as people who identify as queer, transgender or gender non-conforming, providing culturally conscious therapy for people from marginalized communities. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been providing online therapy for BIPOC and Queer identified people since 2016. I am fully licensed in the state of Florida and Georgia. I offer Teletherapy for adults. Please do not schedule an appointment within 24 hours of completing intake paperwork. Thanks!
