About YiChing

YiChing Trenkamp is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Louisiana with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and other common life stresses. Sessions are offered in English and Mandarin.

YiChing favors practical, skills-based work that helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered techniques. Those approaches are used to help people manage symptoms, make changes, and try different ways of responding to difficult situations.

Her approach combines direct skill practice with time to reflect. Clients can expect to talk about what’s happening now, test small changes between sessions, and review what helps. Goals are set together and adjusted as needed.

YiChing pays attention to family roles, cultural background, and relationship patterns during sessions. She includes work on attachment, communication problems, body image, and caregiver stress when relevant. She also addresses substance use, eating concerns, and panic symptoms as part of treatment planning when those issues are present.

Practical matters are part of the process. YiChing uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted. To get started, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How YiChing uses structured approaches in online sessions

YiChing draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain problems. CBT involves clear steps - identifying thoughts, testing them, and practicing different responses - which can be useful for anxiety, panic, mood issues, and sleep problems.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. ACT focuses on accepting difficult feelings while building a life direction that matters to the person.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will discuss options, try methods that match a person’s goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to keep using.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. If someone prefers particular session arrangements or has questions about language or session length, they should confirm those details when scheduling.
