Hi. I am Laura, and I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of North Texas (UNT). Under the supervision of a licensed professor counselor, I provide counseling services to children, adults, and families. I am fluent in Mandarin and English and am committed to creating a safe, supportive, and respectful counseling space for individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds.

My current training focuses on the mental health of children, particularly through play-based therapeutic approaches. I believe children express their inner worlds through play, using toys to communicate emotions and needs that they may not yet be able to articulate verbally. I also collaborate with parents through parent-child support and family counseling, helping families build safer, more stable, and understanding relationships.

For adult clients, I draw from existential and humanistic approaches, focusing on how you make sense of your life experiences, value choices, and inner strengths. Whether you are navigating cross-cultural life, relationship challenges, career transitions, or exploring identity and life direction, I believe everyone is coping in their own way. Counseling provides a space to recognize your own strengths, understand your feelings, and move toward a more authentic and freer life.

Whether you are experiencing confusion, distress, or simply a desire to deepen your self-understanding, I am here to walk alongside you on this journey of exploration.
