臨床心理學家 |臨床主任

我獲得了芝加哥職業心理學學院的心理學博士學位和文學碩士學位。我不僅在私人診所工作,而且通過在住宅環境工作獲得了我的治療經驗。

 

我的目標是讓每個走進我辦公室的人都能感受到 舒適和接受。  我尊重每個人的文化、性別、種族和性身份。  我對我的領域充滿熱情,並相信進入我辦公室的每個人都是獨一無二的。  我使用一種綜合方法,包括認知行為療法、辯證行為療法和心理動力學技術。  我與每位客戶一起設計滿足其個人需求和目標的治療計劃。  我喜歡與兒童、青少年和成人一起工作,我提供個人、家庭和關係治療。

我在治療情緒障礙、人格障礙、焦慮、藥物濫用和憤怒方面擁有豐富的經驗和培訓。此外,我專門治療經常與慢性疼痛相關的心理鬥爭,包括焦慮、抑鬱、壓力和人際關係困難。  我還專門治療產後抑鬱症和不孕症。  

我歡迎來自我的客戶的反饋。  當客戶覺得某種技術不起作用時,我鼓勵他或她告訴我,這樣我們就可以共同努力尋找可能更有效的另一種技術。  我認為治療絕對是一個團隊的努力。

Finding balance in this unpredictable world can sometimes seem unachievable. Together, we can find a balance that best fits you. My goal for therapy is teaching you the skills needed to find your balance so you can flourish in your daily life. Whatever your journey has been, I will help you implement knowledge and tools to overcome barriers from the past, present, and future. I am here to listen from a neutral perspective with expertise in psychological health and the influence it can have on the rest of our biological system. My clinical skills reflect all ages across the lifespan as I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. With this, I am flexible in aiding in treatment among various cohorts and in a multitude of settings. 

 

Through my training in health service psychology at Kansas City University, I was able to work closely with medical students in training to become knowledgeable in the process of collaborative care. I am willing to work with you and any of your providers to ensure advocacy for your comprehensive wellbeing. You will not feel alone or unheard throughout our treatment together as I will work collaboratively with you to ensure the best care.

 

 The evidence-based treatments I commonly use in practice include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), solution-focused therapy (SFT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and cognitive processing therapy (CPT).  I am well versed in neurocognitive deficit interventions, mood disturbances, substance use interventions, and trauma processing. Additionally, I have done extensive research in women’s health issues including PMDD, postpartum depression and anxiety, and other menstrual conditions.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is paramount in fostering change. It is through an open, nonjudgmental, and safe environment that clients can explore and grow into their most authentic selves and lead more fulfilling lives. My approach emphasizes how our past and present experiences shape how we relate to others and the world around us. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and utilize an integrative and collaborative approach that incorporates aspects of Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Feminist, Relational, and Strengths-Based approaches.

I am an LGBTQ+ affirming and sex positive therapist who welcomes clients who are part of the kink and poly/consensual non-monogamy communities. I received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Central Florida and a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology.

I have experience in multiple settings including substance abuse facilities, community mental health centers, and therapeutic day schools working with concerns such as anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, developmental disorders, impulse control, and relationship struggles.

In life, people look for answers and I believe the answers lie within each of us. I strive to help individuals make their thoughts and goals clearer so that individuals can find answers during times of heavy clouds and dark skies. Through processing, learning effective tools, and techniques to manage high stress and anxiety, I work with my clients to get them to a more comprehensive sense of self. That self they have always dreamed of being and that self they, unconsciously, already are. In doing so, processing the past and the present to develop how my clients want their future to look will be a journey of healing and finding balance. 

 

I work from an integrative approach primarily utilizing Psychoanalytic/Psychodynamic interventions with Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral theories. I am extensively trained in Psychoanalytic/Psychodynamic and Dialectical Behavioral therapies. I strive to help individuals identify patterns in current relationships and behaviors that stem from past experiences, both from past attachment, as well as environmentally learned. I take a collaborative approach through processing, learning effective tools, and applying techniques to manage high stress and anxiety. I have experience working with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, mood difficulties, trauma-related concerns, self-esteem, interpersonal relationships, phase of life adjustments, personality disorders, identity and LGBTQIA+ related concerns.  

 

I earned my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from Adler University in Chicago, IL and my master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology at Argosy University, Chicago, IL. I have worked in private practices, intensive outpatient programs and college counseling settings as I enjoy working with young adults, middle-aged adults, individually, couples and in group therapy.

阿德勒大學對我很重要,因為它強調社會正義和社區參與。成為芝加哥社區的一員讓我大開眼界,因為我來自一個小鎮。做大池塘里的一條小魚給了我機會和經歷,我覺得這些經歷幫助我成長為一名輔導員。  

 

我在芝加哥公立學校、青少年住宿中心和危機中心等住宿環境中獲得了治療經驗。我的熱情包括與兒童、青少年和年輕人一起工作,同時促進多樣性。我提供個人、團體和家庭治療。我的經驗包括治療一系列心理健康問題,包括抑鬱症、焦慮症、品行障礙、對立違抗性障礙、注意力缺陷多動障礙 (ADHD)、適應障礙和憤怒。

 

我的方法是綜合結合循證實踐,包括以客戶為中心的治療、認知行為治療、辯證行為治療和阿德勒治療。我的專業領域涉及遊戲治療的使用。遊戲治療是一種心理治療方法,主要用於幫助個人通過遊戲自由表達自己的情緒和想法。治療性遊戲是我幫助有學業、行為、社交或情感問題的人與表達方式不同的人的一種方式。口頭交流並不適合我們所有人,而且可能會令人生畏。我更喜歡在做一些積極或有趣的事情時結識某人。

 

我的熱情是通過利用他們的優勢來培養獨立性,幫助我的客戶發揮最大的潛力。我的治療風格包括與我的客戶會面,他們目前所在的地方。 我的目標是提供一種獨特而真實的諮詢體驗,讓人們感覺自己被接受。我尋求提供一個安全和協作的空間,以幫助建立信任以促進治療關係的發展。

Therapist

I believe we’re naturally good and unfortunately taught to feel shame, worthlessness, inadequacy, and the ideas of “bad” and “wrong”. I’m dedicated to providing a non-judgmental environment to support clients, explore their situations, and achieve their goals. I strive to hear and understand your feelings, past and current experiences, as well as to provide information and new coping strategies to help you deal with your concerns, difficulties, and struggles. We will sort out what’s going on in your life and sort it out together.

 

I received my Master’ degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Adler University. I have received training  in CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and personality disorders treatment and management. It is my goal to keep enlarging my toolbox in order to provide more efficient and effective support to my clients.

 

The differences between cultures, languages, and environments may cause frustration or even conflict, and having new information and ways to handle them will create fresh insights and help you accomplish your goals. I hope after every session my client feel more confident, having healthier boundaries, and enjoy their lives more.

 

I offer therapy to individuals, couples, and families in English, Mandarin, and Japanese.

We all have unique innate strengths that create our inner awesomeness. However, sometimes we forget or lack the skills to nurture these qualities when we are consumed by the chaos of our day-to-day lives. By recognizing and developing these qualities we will come to recognize and “own our awesome.”   Together, we will take the first steps on your journey to maximize your full potential. We‘ll identify and work on areas where you get stuck, to increase your alignment with your values, as we develop practices that create life-changing shifts and lasting results. 

 

I am a licensed professional counselor. I completed my Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from DePaul University in Chicago. Throughout my career, I’ve held positions in outpatient therapy and residential treatment programs. I have worked with diverse populations and ages including adolescents and teens, adults, and individuals with chronic mental health and physical health issues. I use an integrative approach of strengths-based, person-centered, and psychodynamic techniques.  I strongly believe in the importance of the therapeutic alliance and that clients should feel safe and supported. ​Each session we will collaborate on your treatment to help you meet your personal needs and goals.

Nicole Yan, MSW

Therapist

My approach to therapy is based on mutual appreciation. Through openness and acceptance, we can work together on personal issues and emotional situations you face. I support individuals in learning to heal their own suffering through discovery of the gentleness, warmth, wisdom, and compassion that is an innate capacity of all human beings. I enjoy working with people on their journeys and helping them to nurture their inner and outer worlds with kindness and awareness.

 

My practice is informed by cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic techniques, client-centered approach, as well as mindfulness, self-compassion, and Buddhist psychology. My clinical experience includes a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, spirituality, relationships, substance abuse, and gender identity.

 

I received my graduate degrees, a Master of Social Work and a Master of Divinity, from the University of Chicago. I have also worked as a hospital chaplain and am familiar with contemplative practices in patient care. For several years now, I have facilitated a weekly meditation group as a way to promote growth and healing in our community. I am fluent in both English and Chinese.
