About
Meet Sylvia
Sylvia provides virtual therapy in Mandarin and English to clients in New York and New Jersey. Her clinical work focuses primarily on young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, identity questions, ADHD-related difficulties, and life transitions. She is particularly interested in working with people whose lives may appear stable from the outside, but who feel lost, lonely, or uncertain about what they want. Therapy can provide space to examine the personal, relational, and cultural expectations influencing these concerns and to make choices with greater clarity and intention. Sylvia's approach emphasizes narrative, feminist, and relational therapy, with motivational interviewing and CBT-based strategies incorporated as appropriate. Her style is warm, collaborative, and engaged. She helps clients clarify patterns and values, examine how culture and relationships shape their concerns, and develop practical responses to current difficulties. Sylvia especially welcomes Asian and immigrant clients and members of LGBTQIA+ communities. She is supervised by Rebecca Brooks, LMHC, LPC. In her spare time, Sylvia likes watching anime, playing video games, writing fan fiction, and reading novels.
