Brian Li
There are countless ways to live a life. I am genuinely curious to learn how you live yours, and to understand you as a person and the issues you want to address. I enjoy working clients who are interested learning more about themselves, and I am here to help you uncover the unnoticed, see the unseen, and voice the spoken. I value the therapeutic alliance built along our way and believe in its power in making changes happen.
Therapy is all for you. There is not a single right way to benefit from therapy, and you are invited to try, explore, and feel what works best for you. I incorporate different approaches such as psychodynamic approach and relational approach. I am also trauma-informed and strive to create a safe and supportive space that respects your own pace, especially when we revisit adverse past experiences. I understand that taking the step towards change is not easy, and I am here to walk with you to the place when you feel comfortable and ready.
