From Taiwan ⊹ Aunt ⊹ Sister ⊹ Educator ⊹ Therapist

Hi there,

This is Carol (they/them), thank you for taking some time to consider working together.

You matter in this world, and, in therapy, we make space for the feelings, experiences, decisions, and changes that are meaningful to you. I want my clients to have the space to be true to themselves. As we grow in self understanding, we can become aware of the internal patterns that have longed to rest, releasing what has become exasperating. In that release, we return our inner world to a form that is more liberated and true.

I support people tending to trauma, grief, and times of great change, including experiences that can be described as CPTSD or borderline personality disorder. I have a background working with migrant survivors of relational, domestic, sexual, and political violence. I also meet couples, friends, and other forms of groups who are navigating connection, conflict, accountability, and belonging.

I specialize in trauma therapy that recognizes the complexities that make us who we are, anchored by somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy.

My style is warm, direct, and down-to-earth. I often explore creative, musical, nature-based, and cultural therapeutic exercises with clients.

You know your life best, and I learn from you on how best to integrate my skills for your needs. Please see Areas of Focus to get to know more about my practice.

With care,
Carol Lin
