我說粵語

I understand the importance of building a trusting relationship with my clients. My approach is genuine and nonjudgmental. Psychotherapy is a process, a journey as we work together to explore your thoughts and feelings, and to gain new insights towards a better understanding of yourself and your relationships with others. We will work together to find hope and solutions to your problems. I understand that each client is unique, so I tailor my approach based on individual needs.

Doris is a licensed therapist who has extensive experience working with a diverse population, including children, young adults, older adults, and Asian clients. She speaks Cantonese and conversational Mandarin. Her approach is warm, collaborative, and person-centered.

I provide psychological, psychoeducational, and neuropsychological evaluations to children and adults in English, Cantonese, or Mandarin. Most clients seek evaluations due to inattention (ADHD), mood disorders, anxiety, learning difficulties, social communication differences (ASD), and challenges at work, school, or home. I emphasize the impact of sociocultural factors on the examinee's symptoms, experiences, and functioning. The goals of an evaluation are to clarify the diagnosis and offer recommendations to improve one's functioning. I also offer immigration-related (including N-648) and independent education evaluations (IEEs).

Building relationships is a strength of mine and I love using that as a vehicle for healing and personal growth. I work with adolescents, young adults, families and couples in exploring past trauma, anxiety, depression, eating disorders and relational issues. I value open communication and a willingness to be vulnerable as the keys to growth and change!

Good therapy should feel like a good match - you're inspired, excited, and look forward to diving into the issues that you want to solve. Also I embrace the idea of therapy being like work - it takes some commitment and an ability to roll up your sleeves after all. But unlike work, I see therapy as a place for having fun and if it's a good match you'll see that you and I could dig in together, laugh, and have you taking control of your life and making progress on your goals with time.

Do you feel anxious and overwhelmed? Are you on an endless treadmill of conflicts, or under the grip of anger, depression or trauma from the past? I work with individuals and couples on emotional and relationship issues, helping them resolve issues from the past that are affecting their present. Perhaps I can help you resolve your issues also.

Clients come to me due to anxiety, grief and trauma related concerns while facing stressors and life transitions. Life is difficult when you are experiencing mental health struggles due to health, family or marital situations, dating hardships, work conflict and/or past life experiences. It affects self confidence. You could be struggling while navigating the impact of immigration, cultural background, identity, inter-generational differences, interpersonal challenges, and career demands on your worldview and yourself. As an Asian therapist, I not only have familiarity but also cultural competency in helping APIDA individuals.

Do you feel lost in an overwhelming world? Have you followed the roadmap given to you and did all the "right" things, but still feel deeply unhappy and unfulfilled? I work with high achieving and sensitive women who are familiar with prioritizing the needs of family, career, and relationships before their own. Many clients I work with grew up in immigrant families and from an early age were emotionally abused/neglected and parentified (taking on adult responsibilities as a child). If this sounds like your bicultural childhood, as an adult, you've likely experienced burnout, resentment, isolation, anxiety, and relationship problems.

Growing up, I heard a lot of negative things about therapy. You may have also experienced a cultural stigma against the idea of talking about your innermost thoughts and feelings with someone other than family or friends. However, I believe everyone can work towards happiness with the right kind of support in their lives. I provide online counseling for adults or teens who are seeking help with anxiety, post traumatic stress, prenatal & postpartum concerns, high-pressure work/school, and more.

My name is Sarina Pan and I am a licensed clinical social worker in private practice in Los Angeles area. I work with adolescents and adults across all ages. I help people experience relief from shame, relationship struggles, anxiety, depression, and inner criticism through self-understanding, self-exploring, and self-compassion. Hearing people out and providing support and guidance to them to walk out from the life struggles is my true life passion.

Helping clients live a more full life by understanding themselves is at the core of my practice. Trauma is the cause of a significant amount of mental health issues. Sometimes it can be a shock trauma like a car accident. Sometimes it can be a developmental trauma from difficult relationships from childhood. I have spent my professional career helping people with trauma understand how trauma affects their lives and develop tools and skills to manage that trauma. My passion is bringing healing to people who have been through a traumatic/stressful experience.

Having a trauma-informed lens in therapy means recognizing that some of your difficulties (symptoms) may have their roots in trauma. Our brains and bodies are deeply influenced by those experiences. When we acknowledge, understand and reframe our traumatic experiences, we can get unstuck from patterns that no longer serve us.

改變所帶來既未知和壓力，有時真係好難受，我地身體和情緒作出壓倒性既反應時，真係會令人困擾和覺得可怕，您可能會感到艱鉅、孤立同困頓。我希望可以幫您了解您的情緒、想法、行為和身體反應，試圖了解佢地所表達既信息。您可以學習更具適應力的方式黎改善和應對您既情況和情緒，去減低精神内耗，用新收番黎既精神同時間去休息和追求有意義既目標和活動。除了心理治療以外，我還提供有關移民方面的評估，為合適人仕填寫殘障豁免書(N-648)。

I found my calling to become a psychotherapist out of a desire to help people live happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives. I work with individuals, couples and families to help them resolve the impact of abuse and trauma, as well as problems of depression, anxiety, anger, grief, couples' discord, family conflicts, behavioral issues, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I am passionate about helping my clients who feel lost about their life directions with career exploration and identity development. As a Christian, I also love integrating spirituality with psychological well-being with clients for whom spirituality is relevant.

Is anxiety, depression, or trauma holding you back from being your true self? Do you feel stuck in managing difficult life transitions? Now, every little thing becomes super overwhelming. Those negative experiences reopen old wounds and cause new ones. You tried burying your pain hoping it would go away. You feel lonely and tormented. You feel exhausted, stressed, and angry all the time. You wonder how much more you can take. You are unsure of who or where to turn for help. In the midst of this painful journey, you do not have to go through it alone.
