Listen in on a Counseling Session with Asian American Therapist Jeanie Chang

Asian American therapist Jeanie Chang and co-host DJ Chuang have a mock counseling session to show people what happens, demystifying psychological benefits, and that there’s nothing to be anxious or afraid of when someone vulnerably shares their inner thoughts in a safe place and in confidentiality.

Counseling is a very helpful resource to process emotions, feelings, and thoughts in a healthy way that reduces stress and other symptoms that hold people back from a better quality of life. Managing mental health increases one’s happiness in life so one can go from surviving to thriving.
