Sandy Yang-James, M.A.,LMFT

she/her

I believe in hope. I believe that you have the power to transform and to heal. This process may challenge you to feel uncomfortable, to grieve, to reflect with self-compassion, and to rediscover who you are. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I practice with honesty and compassion. I invite creativity, humor, and curiosity into our space to explore issues impacting your capacity to show up as your most authentic self. Our work will include intersectionality, identity, and its impact on your relationships with others. Therapy is unique for each individual and family system. I meet individuals and families where they are and start our work from there.

Areas of interests: intersectional identity exploration, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, I am comfortable working with SUD/CD due to my previous professional experiences, EMDR, perinatal/postpartum, relational concerns, life transitions, grief/loss
