Meet

Jialin Yang (Sherry)

Hi there! I'm Jialin Yang, or you can call me Sherry! Welcome and thank you for taking the time to explore this space - whether you're feeling overwhelmed, bewildered, or just curious about healing. Whatever you're feeling, I'm here for you.

I'm currently working towards a Master’s degree in counseling psychology (MACP). I offer low-cost online therapy under clinical supervision and I'm here to create a safe, supportive space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings without any judgement. I truly believe that we all have the power to grow and become the best versions of ourselves. Healing doesn't start with having all the "right answers"; it starts with finding joy and contentment in your own situation.

I know what it's like to live between cultures, having grown up in China and moved to Canada as a teenager. I really enjoy helping people who are going through life changes, or who are feeling stressed or worried about who they are. I work with students from other countries, young people who are finding out what they want to do in life, and anyone who is feeling stressed, sad or worried. And you don't have to be in crisis to come to therapy. Maybe you just want to find yourself, or figure out who you really are. If any of this sounds like you, I would absolutely love to meet you!

My Therapeutic Approach

My style is all about calm, warmth, collaboration, and person-centered. I draw on evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and solution-focused strategies.

Population that I prefer working with

I typically work with individuals and adults.
