Welcome! I'm YenAn, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California, offering psychotherapy for the Asian community in the Bay Area. Many of us pursue the American dream, but adapting to this fast-paced environment brings both external challenges and inner conflicts. We face pressures to succeed, but also struggle with feelings of being lost, overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed. In the Asian community, cultural expectations to “Be Strong” often make it hard to seek support, leading us to silently carry our pain. As a social worker, I’ve had the honor of witnessing clients' healing journeys. Together, we’ve worked through pain, trauma, and life’s challenges. My role is to provide a safe space where you can explore your emotions, tap into your inner strength, and learn to manage stress. With compassion and clinical skills, I’ll support you in building resilience, developing coping skills, and most importantly, embracing self-love and acceptance.
