Are you constantly feeling anxious, sad, or hopeless? Are you frustrated with your life, do you feel like you’re stuck in one place? Are you looking for an Asian American Christian counselor who will guide you in embracing Biblical values? Are you a part of a local church group, but still feel the need to share your trough emotions?
Then, I’m the right person for you.
Asian Americans often struggle with their self-image. They’re aware of the difference in culture, communication, and values and that sometimes makes them feel like they don’t fit in any box. Fighting with your mental health is hard enough without having to deal with it on your own.
Let me help you face your challenges! I offer a God-honouring consulting service for Asian Americans. I understand the difference in the Asian culture and how they might affect you. Whether it’s a complicated relationship with your parents or issues with your significant other or social pressure to succeed, I can help you tackle all these problems.
The individual therapy is specially designed for Christians and Asian Americans that need help to battle mental health, anxiety, or panic attacks.
Christian Asian American Counseling will give you the opportunity to dig deep and find the routes of your problems, to understand your subconscious habits, negative emotions, and behaviors that have a negative impact on your mental health.
Together, we will work to build a better understanding of your thoughts and feelings. I realize that you might feel lost and you might not know where to begin your journey.
Contact me and I’ll be glad to talk with you and guide you to the best treatment for you. Book a FREE 20-minute consultation, and ask me any questions you have!
Nothing good happens overnight, so if you want results you need to invest your time and energy in order to create the life you know you deserve.
Sadly, there are still a lot of stigmas around therapy. That if you seek therapy then something is wrong with you, that you’re weak if you don’t know how to handle your problems on your own. There is nothing further from the truth than that!
Christian Asian American counseling will help you stop pretending your problems don’t exist, stop running away from your emotions, and develop healthy coping mechanisms and habits.
