Hey there! My name is Yijie (Ee-Gee), and I am a couple and family therapist working in the Chicago area. My work includes supporting individuals, couples, and families (specifically parent-child dynamic) dealing with anxiety, trauma, relational conflicts, and life transitions. As a relational therapist of color, I am committed to providing therapy for clients from diverse, intersectional identities, with particular interests in helping individuals unlock their authentic and autonomous SELF and helping cross-cultural couples navigate intimate relationships.
My work is strongly attuned to collaborative, narrative, and attachment-based approaches. During the sessions, I am dedicated to creating a safe and empowering environment to support clients in recognizing, exploring, and nurturing authentic connections with themselves and others.
I deeply understand the feelings of frustration and isolation when we feel pressured to perform our identities. Therefore, I am eager to offer a space where you can come as you are and prioritize your needs. I firmly believe in your inner strengths and resources and would like to accompany you in your journey of awareness and growth with warmth and empathy.
