Sil Si-Wei Chen

Are you a creative, tender soul confronted with issues of self-worth and having trouble getting your needs met? Do you strive to ensure you’re liked, accepted, and approved of at the expense of expressing your authentic self or pursuing what you truly desire? Are you your own worst critic, rarely giving yourself a break from the burden of shame, blame, and guilt? I believe in our true state of being, we are all already brilliant and whole. My job therefore is not to “fix” or “cure” you, but to help you reconnect with your innate resources so you can naturally heal and grow. I work particularly well with creatives and engineers wanting to address anxiety, self-esteem, career, relationship, and/or spiritual/existential issues. My expertise also spans LGBTQ and Asian-American concerns. Therapy experience with me is further deepened and enhanced by Buddhist psychology, mindfulness, and my background both as a scientist and a photographer. Expect to make many new discoveries about yourself
