Getting to know Ben Quan
Therapy can be a place to feel understood and build practical change.
I’m Ben Quan, LCSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with Best Intentions Behavioral Therapy by YYW Services. With 10 years in practice, I offer individual therapy in English for adolescents age 16 and older and adults, including older adults, through telehealth in California. My approach is warm, culturally affirming, person-centered, and trauma-responsive.
I support people navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, mood concerns, relationship issues, co-dependency, gender identity, self-esteem, stress and burnout, major life transitions, and serious mental illness. I offer gender-affirming mental health care. I welcome LGBTQ+ clients, people living with HIV/AIDS, Asian-American and Southeast Asian clients, immigrants, college students, professionals, and fellow therapists seeking their own support. I attend to multicultural and multigenerational family experiences within individual therapy.
My work draws on EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-informed CBT, Internal Family Systems, Motivational Interviewing, person-centered care, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Positive Psychology. Together, we choose approaches that fit your concerns, readiness, and goals. Sessions can include practical tools for coping, boundaries, emotional regulation, and meaningful change between visits.
You can expect a calm, collaborative space where questions and feedback are welcome. We explore what matters to you, set clear goals, and adjust the pace as we review your progress.
