Gao is a bilingual (English/Hmong) psychotherapist serving individuals suffering from trauma, SPMI, chemical dependency, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. Her professional experiences include 10+ years working with individuals in their home, consultation, inpatient care, crisis, and clinic/outpatient settings. She distills knowledge in county court systems via CPS and Civil Commitments: MI/CD/DD and Guardianship. She has seen the significance therapy has in providing individuals and families the opportunity to heal as self-identity blooms. Her commitment is to support you to become a better you.
Gao’s approach is client-centered, integrative and holistic which allows clients and communities to achieve healing and harmony. She draws from various evidenced-based interventions including DBT, CBT, Advanced & Enhanced Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Brainspotting, and psychoeducation to develop skills, insight and regulation of the nervous system.
