¡Hola a todos! Me llamo Donna, Mexicana a hueso colorado y soy bilingüe en Ingles y Español. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist. I hold a masters in science in psychology with the specialty of marriage, individual, and family therapy. I am here to help you to the best of my ability and most of all, I'm open-minded about cultures, beliefs, sexual orientation, and walks of life. Fun facts about me: I am not an UwU girl but I do love the aesthetic and cute fashion! Also, my last name is Xu because my husband is Chinese-Canadian-American.

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

Typically a first session is meant for establishing rapport and seeing if we are a good fit for each other. If we are, then we go at the client's pace. We can get down to business or take some time and ease there.

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

Coming from a bicultural background (American-born with first generation Mexican parents) and also having lived abroad in Japan, I feel that I am able to understand some of the common challenges that come with assimilation and acculturation from both domestic and foreign perspectives.

My treatment methods

EMDR

Whenever I have clients who want to work on trauma, this is the approach that I've found has the evidence to really help clients get through their hurdles.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

For most clients who want to get in and out of therapy, this is the approach that I've noticed helps a lot for my solution minded clients.

Narrative

For clients who want to delve deeper into their stories, this approach is the best for them.
