Female Therapists in Woodbury, MN

Hello, I am Maylee Chang. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who graduated from Wheaton College Graduate School. My personal and professional experience have provided me the experience to effectively work with adolescents, adults, and families with varied needs from all ethnicities. My areas of expertise include working with trauma from physical/sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, family issues, grief, immigration, war experiences; and shifts in family structure related to divorce, remarriage, child protection involvement, foster care, adoption, life transitions, acculturation, and identity formation.

Life can be unpredictable and challenging, which can create uncertainty, fear, and stress. Clients who see me for psychotherapy report experiencing stress, anxiety, or depression caused by life transitions, grief, interpersonal or self-identity struggles. Whether clients are new to therapy or have tried therapy before, they may feel nervous about moving forward with their healing journey. In working with me, they feel welcomed, supported, comfortable, understood and heard. I use evidence based therapy strategies.

As humans we have a need for connection and growth. At times the circumstances of our lives encroach, making this difficult to achieve. As we grow our relationship, by your design, we will work through issues, bringing you to a greater freedom and peace. For clients with experiences in trauma or abuse, we will work to allow you to live alongside your experiences, rather than being activated within them. I employ a psycho dynamic approach and welcome the exploration of family systems and their impact on our present self. From this understanding, we address current concerns and explore means of resolution to achieve therapeutic goals.

I believe we are the sum of our life experiences and who we are today is neither good nor bad, simply a result of these experiences.
