Getting to know Yia Yang

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California, with a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Fresno. With over 10 years of experience in mental health, I specialize in supporting adults through a variety of challenges, including depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem issues, trauma, and more. I have worked in both outpatient and inpatient settings, which has given me a well-rounded approach to therapy. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate their struggles and develop healthier coping skills and habits to lead more fulfilling lives. My approach I understand the importance of being culturally sensitive and recognize that each person’s background, values, and experiences shape how they interact with the world. Therefore, I take an integrative, client-centered approach to therapy, tailoring treatment to each person’s unique needs, goals, and life experiences. Drawing from my experience in both outpatient and inpatient settings, I use a variety of evidence-based techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to address issues like depression, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, job and school stress, relationship challenges, trauma, and more. My focus I have worked with a broad range of clients from diverse backgrounds, addressing a wide array of clinical issues. While I’ve had experience working with couples and families, my primary focus has been on individual therapy with adults dealing with challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, social skills difficulties, relationship struggles, and trauma. My communication style I believe therapy should be a collaborative process, where we work together to explore challenges, develop insights, and build practical tools for lasting change. I aim to be approachable and always respectful, ensuring that my clients feel heard and valued in every session.
