Mei (pronounced MAY) was born to two physicians in Chengdu, the capital of the Chinese province of Sichuan.  Raised by her grandmother in Chengdu while her parents worked in the very harsh environment of the Tibetan plateaus, she observed first-hand the close-knit but badly enmeshed dynamics of families typical in Asian cultures.  At a young age, she learned to navigate the tension that came from relationships spanning across multiple generations.

She taught English at a middle school and led the human resource department of a new joint venture entertainment company before coming to the U.S., where she obtained her MS degree in Management Information Systems from the University of Missouri – St. Louis.  Her career spanned from inside sales rep at a cosmetic manufacturer to computer programmer and analyst, but she would say that her most challenging job was parenting in a dual culture home. 

It was while working as a computer programmer that Mei’s passion to serve people at a deeper level was realized.  After experiencing the great benefits from counseling during her son’s turbulent adolescence, the conflicts in her cross-cultural marriage, her own depression, fibromyalgia, and other chronic health issues, she returned to school and received a Master of Arts in Counseling from Dallas Theological Seminary.

Mei holds a whole-person view and utilizes a holistic approach – she believes all aspects of a person, biological, emotional, psychological, spiritual and relational, are all interconnected and impact each other.  Her therapeutic approach is tailored to each individual’s overall situation and specific needs and goals. 

Mei sees clients in Allen, Frisco, Plano/Richardson, and virtually via telehealth.
