It takes courage and great strength to seek help for lasting and rewarding personal growth and for stronger and more fulfilling couple and family relationships. I believe it is important to have the best interest of my clients in my heart, to have sympathy, compassion and care for all my clients, and to build safe, warm, trustworthy, and collaborative therapeutic relationships. I am committed to applying evidence-based and culturally-competent therapeutic concepts and skills to address clients’ specific needs and to build upon client’s strength for change. (作为持有婚姻家庭治疗师执照的专业人员，我相信从系统的角度解决个人、夫妻和家庭问题更加有效。寻求帮助，实现持久有益的个人成长和更加美满的夫妻和家庭关系需要勇气和坚强的意志。我认为关心客户的最大利益，对所有客户怀有同情心、恻隐·心和关怀，并建立安全、温暖、值得信赖和合作的治疗关系非常重要。我致力于应用基于证据的、具有文化敏感性的治疗理念和技巧，以满足客户的具体需求，并根据客户的长处以促进其成长。) CLINICAL EXPERIENCE (临床经验): I have 6 years of clinical experience in conducting individual, couple, and family therapy and psychological evaluations for clients from diverse backgrounds.
