Yen-Pei Huang

Yen-Pei Huang is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage strong emotions and stressful life changes. She speaks English and Mandarin and draws on 14 years of clinical experience to support people through anger, anxiety, grief, and relationship concerns. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth, aiming to help each person find practical steps forward.

Yen-Pei believes people can find their own routes to healing. In sessions she helps clients learn about their patterns and try new ways of responding to problems. Conversations are goal-focused and paced to match what each person needs in the moment.

Her work blends client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. She also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas to help people reframe difficult stories and build small, manageable changes. This mix lets sessions be flexible and tailored to each issue.

Yen-Pei trained in clinical psychology for her undergraduate degree and completed a counseling program accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs. She has experience with trauma, post-traumatic stress, depression, panic, addictions, and multicultural concerns, among other issues.

She describes herself as open-minded and adaptable, and she draws on life experience as an avid backpacker when helping people consider new perspectives. People who want conversational, practical therapy that respects cultural background may find her approach a good fit.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Yen-Pei commonly uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness in her practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person’s goals, helping them name feelings and decide next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior, teaching concrete skills to reduce anger, anxiety, or low mood. Mindfulness therapy brings attention to the present moment and simple breathing or awareness exercises to ease reactivity and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to test methods and see what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can shift over time, mixing listening, skill-building, and reframing stories until a practical path forward emerges.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example attending from a quieter space, choosing shorter check-ins on a workday, or avoiding travel time. Licensed professionals can use these flexible arrangements to keep progress moving while adapting to daily schedules and practical constraints.
