About Po
Po Yee Fung is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) and a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in California with ten years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She offers services in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.
Her work emphasizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside acceptance and emotion-focused methods. She uses clear, practical steps to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Sessions include skills for managing emotions, improving communication, and reducing avoidance patterns.
Po Yee describes her approach as culturally aware and attentive to life context. She pays attention to how family background, multicultural identity, and personal values shape thoughts and behavior. This can include exploring attachment and abandonment concerns and how past relationships affect current patterns.
She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take small behavior-based steps toward those values. Emotion-focused methods are used to identify and process strong feelings linked to shame, guilt, or grief. Dialectical strategies support distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness when needed.
Sessions are practical and action-oriented. Clients can expect straightforward skills, behavioral experiments, and communication practice. To begin, users follow the site's matching steps and schedule a first appointment through the online process.
How CBT, ACT, and emotion work together online
Po Yee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT focuses on concrete skills like thought records, behavioral experiments, and activity scheduling to reduce anxiety and depression.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small committed steps toward those values while learning to sit with difficult feelings. Emotion-focused techniques are used to name, track, and process strong emotions that affect relationships and self-esteem.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences and then try specific techniques to see what fits. Sessions often combine skill practice, values work, and emotion processing so people can test what helps.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments into a workday, reducing travel time, and using shorter check-ins when needed. The focus is on making therapy usable in everyday life while trying structured, skills-based methods that aim to change patterns people notice between sessions.
