“I have been seeing Dr. Lin for the past month, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is an exceptional listener who creates a safe and supportive space where I feel truly heard and understood. She has a remarkable ability to pick up on the details of what I share, and her insights are always thoughtful and relevant. What sets Dr. Lin apart is her practical and actionable advice. She doesn’t just listen—she provides clear strategies and tools that I’ve been able to apply in my daily life. Her guidance is compassionate, encouraging, and has already made a positive difference in how I approach challenges. If you’re looking for a therapist who combines empathy with practical support, I highly recommend Dr. Lin. Even in just one month, she has been an invaluable part of my journey toward personal growth and well-being.”

Getting to know Yijie Lian

I love working with you if you are open to honest conversations! You are someone striving to go further in the world, but sometimes you feel confused and unsure about what is good about yourself, what can be changed, and why you are suffering. You may identify as Asian, an international student, LGBTQ+, or someone navigating the challenges of OPT, H1-B, and the green card journey. That is tough and stressful! I can personally and professionally relate to everything above, and I am here to help you. My name is Yijie, and I am a psychotherapist specializing in CBT, with additional modalities including, but not limited to, DBT and psychodynamic therapy. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from New York University. I provide a safe space for you, and with my active listening, I am happy to point out what you are doing great and in what areas you can grow. I hope to be there with you while you step on your journey towards self-growth! I have explored various research articles focused on the aging population, which I found particularly enlightening. These insights gained from this work have significantly informed my practice, in how I approach and support clients who are older adults, addressing the mental health concerns associated with aging and emphasizing the importance of social support systems. There are unique challenges faced by elderly people, including loneliness, social isolation, family roles, stereotypes, and the transition into retirement. I am here, as a young person with my own knowledge, experience, and perspective, to help you go through this transition.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I tend to use a collaborative approach where we work together to identify your needs and the most effective strategies for your growth. Working with me, you can expect an intake process that involves getting to know you and understanding your goals. Progress in our work together might include noticeable shifts in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while navigating your challenges. I sometimes assign homework to reinforce what we explored in sessions.
