Getting to know Wanchun Chien
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Counseling from California State Polytechnic University and have been practicing for many years. I have worked as a therapist and counselor at a community mental health clinic, a social worker at a multipurpose senior service program, a behavioral health specialist, and in a K-5 school in San Francisco for over 10 years. I have also trained interns and taught therapy and counseling in a university graduate school program in California.
My approach
I provide support to individuals, teens, couples, and families to develop awareness, strength, and healing in their lives. I draw on family systems, CBT, mindfulness, psychodynamic and attachment theory, and narrative theory. My approach is warm, relational, and collaborative.
My focus
I support individuals across the lifespan—children, teens, adults, and seniors.
My communication style
I work best with clients who are fully engaged and actively participate in the therapy process, approaching our time together with openness. I understand each individual is unique, so it takes time to open up, and you should share information when you feel it is the right time. We will work as a team to find the best solutions for you.
My journey to therapy
I am grateful to be part of helping professionals as my career. Looking back at my youth, I wish these services had been available to me, as they might have helped me avoid many wrong choices. This motivates me to support others on their healing journeys.
My goals for you
My goal is to help you reduce symptoms and feel alive again. Many of us have been stuck in unhealthy relationships, and together we can work toward healthier, more fulfilling connections.
