Depression, anxiety, and past experiences can make life feel overwhelming and leave you feeling disconnected. If you're seeking a way to feel more grounded and build secure relationships, you're not alone. Fufan is a bilingual (Mandarin-English) therapist with over 14 years of clinical experience. She creates a safe, collaborative space to gently explore these challenges together, and shine a light on patterns that are hard to shift.

She draws from DBT, IFS, EMDR, and CBT-based skills, and tailors her support to your specific needs. Her approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and strengths-based.
