Balancing your cultural identity with fitting in can be really tiring. You push yourself hard to be perfect, but even when people praise you, it doesn’t stop the self-doubt. You value your cultural background, but lately, you’ve found yourself avoiding social interactions, feeling stuck, and unsure of what to do next. The conflicts you’re facing might feel all too familiar, sometimes like a cycle that keeps coming back at you, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and stressed. You want to understand what triggers this cycle. I’m here to support you, build more awareness and explore how they’re connected to your family dynamics or core beliefs.

I’m here to help. My name is Helena Wang, and I’m a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist in California, supervised by Ah Hyun Lee, LCSW. I’ve completed all my clinical hours and am preparing for the exam to become a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

I specialize in creating a safe and supportive space where we can focus on your strengths. Using proven methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and family systems therapy, I help you break free from repeating the same challenges and find out what’s really causing them. I also have years of experience working with families, closely examining family dynamics and how they can affect child development. I provide strategies for families to apply, helping to improve family dynamics and manage relationships more effectively. Together, we can explore these influences and work toward healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

If you’ve noticed your child is struggling, it might be putting stress on your relationship with your partner. I have experience supporting young individuals who are facing challenges, whether it’s helping your child improve social skills, managing ADHD, or addressing childhood trauma. I’m here to help you create a healthier family dynamic. I’m also especially attuned to the needs of Mandarin speakers and those connected to Chinese culture, offering support that respects your unique background and experiences.

Let’s work together to create a healthier, more fulfilling life for you and your family.
