Getting to know Penny Lau

If you're looking to shift out of being constantly overwhelmed and burnt out, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to work through challenges and move forward with clarity. Whether you're struggling with stress, anxiety, health, or work-life balance, we’ll uncover patterns that may be holding you back and explore new ways of thinking. My goal is to collaborate with you as you enhance your own strengths, resilience, emotional well-being, and work together to build strategies that align with your personal and professional aspirations.

What should a new client know about working with you?

With over 12 years of experience in mental health across healthcare and business settings, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with advanced training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). My approach is holistic and includes wellness, integrating mindfulness and writing if desired.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I believe therapy should empower you to increase self-compassion, navigate challenges with confidence, and create lasting change. If you're ready to take the next step, I invite you to schedule a free 15-20 minute consultation to see if we might work well together. Availability: Online/telehealth for clients in Florida with or without Insurance: Insurance Processed via Headway During our initial sessions, we will start to build a plan based on what is currently on your mind, the path that led you here, and where you would like to go. We will discuss your wellness goals, what steps you have already taken on this path, and how you think therapy will help you grow. I also offer coaching sessions if you prefer.
