Hi there! My name is Zheng Liang, a traveling Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I graduated from the University of Miami. My journey to this profession was fueled by a desire to help individuals and families grappling with various forms of trauma. I'm particularly moved to assist those in minority communities dealing with cultural challenges and limited support system.

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

Consider our first session as the commencement of a meaningful therapeutic journey. My aim is to create a space where you feel at ease sharing your thoughts and concerns with me. Throughout our time together, we'll explore your current situation, delve into your history, and identify potential therapeutic goals. As we conclude our session, I'll check in to ensure your comfort with our partnership. Your questions, thoughts, and curiosities about therapy? They're treasures I cherish.

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

For the last five years, I have served my community’s most vulnerable populations: refugees, individuals with chemical dependence, domestic violence victims, and the LGBTQ+ community in Miami. My approach is culturally responsive and I welcome everyone. To my BIPOC community, non-native English speakers, those of all beautiful shapes and sizes, and individuals with disabilities — I see you, I hear you, and I'm here for you.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I specialize in supporting individuals dealing with mood disorders like bipolar disorder and depression. If you're navigating emotional challenges such as fear, anxiety, or obsessive thoughts and are seeking ways to enhance your emotional well-being, my expertise is tailored for you. With a strong background in addressing trauma and addiction, all my work is trauma-informed. If you or someone you know is navigating these complexities, rest assured that I am here to provide understanding, guidance, and a collaborative approach to facilitate healing and well-being.

My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) is all about accepting your thoughts and feelings while committing to take actions that align with your personal values. It offers a practical approach to handle life's challenges, promoting psychological flexibility and resilience. Instead of trying to get rid of negative thoughts or feelings, ACT encourages changing your relationship with them.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

A core aspect of DBT is validation of the your experiences and emotions. This can create a sense of being understood and accepted. You will also learn the practical skills to navigate intense emotions, enhance relationships, and manage distress, providing a tangible toolkit for daily life and emotional crises.

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing is like having a supportive conversation with a guide who helps you explore your goals and navigate through uncertainties. It's about understanding your unique perspective, empowering you to make choices aligned with your values, and discovering your own motivation for change.
