Justin L.F. Yong, LMHC

I am a Multicultural and LGBTQ+ affirming psychotherapist, wellness enthusiast, and native New Yorker working with clients in NYC. I specialize in supporting high-achieving entrepreneurs, creatives, technologists, and first-generation Asian-Americans who struggle with intimacy, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, grief, and trauma.

I curate a warm, validating, and collaborative space where you can safely explore healthier ways of engaging in relationships, improve communication, and free yourself from limiting patterns. My goal is to help you find meaning in grief, heal from trauma, and embrace a life of greater fulfillment and connection.

My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and psychodynamic therapy. Together, we’ll uncover how your past influences your present and empower you to:

• Gain clarity about who you are and what you want
• Lean into closeness and intimacy, and improve communication and mutual support in your relationships
• Liberate yourself from riddling imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and self-criticism
• Find meaning in your grief
• Release pain and suffering to heal, grow, and find relief from trauma
• Shift into healthy patterns and behaviors that are aligned with your true self
• End cycles of generational trauma
