我以多元化和社会公平的角度看待和理解来访者的诉求。
我认为心理咨询可分成三部分:向内、向外、向前。心理咨询不仅是对自我认知的挖掘和探索,更是对外部环境及社会结构如何塑造自我的认知旅程。我相信知识和探索的力量,愿意凭借其专业领域的学识,与来访一起探索如何获得清晰的自我认知、从容地建立和选择自我与他人及外部世界的联结,从而收获疗愈并成长。
强迫症以及有关疾病
根据各自研究表明,全球患有强迫症的人大概有1.1%-3%,也就说,每100个人里面,就有1-3个人患有临床强迫症。即使如此,我们普遍对强迫症仍然知之甚少。
我受训于哈佛大学医学院附属麦克莱恩医院(Mclean Hospital) OCDI 强迫症中心,并曾在罗杰斯行为健康诊所担任专攻强迫症、焦虑症以及相关疾病治疗的心理咨询师。我擅长结合接纳承诺疗法(ACT)及暴露疗法(ERP)治疗强迫症以及有关疾病。
(Includes but not limited to International students, H1b visa holders, refugee, adoptee, and illegal immigrants)
我具有丰富的治疗亚裔背景的来访者的经历和体验,了解不同身份背景带给来访的多重压力以及独特挑战。我工作过的个案们来自不同程度的亚裔文化背景,包括东亚、东南亚和西亚地区,并覆盖多种多元化的身份,比如国际学生、非法移民、难民、孤儿、H1B签证持有者等等。
我相信个体的差异性和独特性。尽管同处美国,都是亚裔,但每位个体来访者都有独立的、不可复制的文化背景和身份认知。这些元素和我们同时存在的其他身份及经历,包括年龄、性别、原生家庭、资产、阶层等等,碰撞在一起,形成多元性交织(Intersectionality),指引着我们看世界的方式和角度。我会综合诸项元素,与来访者共同探索来访的议题,从心理学角度改善并提高来访者面对困境和挑战的应对能力。
Erjing offers different therapy lengths:
Brief-term Therapy (3-6 sessions), Middle-term Therapy (12-24 sessions), and Long-Term Therapy.
What is brief-term Therapy?
Brief-term therapy is characterized by its focused and time-limited nature, often focusing on addressing immediate and specific problems and providing practical short-term solutions within a concise timeframe. Brief-term therapy with Erjing can take several forms: 1) the therapist and client might collaborate closely to identify the immediate challenge, develop strategies for coping or problem-solving, and work towards tangible outcomes; 2) the therapist might provide an assessment, recommendations, and/or referrals for further work, and 3) the client might utilize brief-term Therapy to gain a feel for therapy.
Brief-term therapy usually does not involve getting to the core of the challenges.
What is Middle-term Therapy?
Therapy sessions ranging from 12 to 24 typically fall into the category of middle-term therapy. This intermediate length allows for a more in-depth exploration and work on a specific issue. Some examples of this specific issue might include a single life transition, a single case of trauma, or relationship challenges.
What is Long-Term Therapy?
Long-term therapy involves an extended and ongoing therapeutic relationship between a client and a therapist. Unlike brief or middle-term therapy, long-term therapy continues for an extended period, often spanning months to years. This form of therapy allows for a comprehensive exploration of deep-seated issues, patterns, and complexities in an individual's life. It also allows individuals to work through complex issues at their own pace. The therapeutic relationship becomes a supportive and transformative space for personal growth and lasting change.
