I feel very confident in Hong’s experience as a therapist. She’s an effective listener and knows when and how to communicate strategies to help you with your concerns. I highly recommend her.

I've been working with Hong Zhang for a short time, but I've noticed significant improvements in my relationships, especially with my family. She is an excellent listener and has a very positive and encouraging approach. Hong provided practical tools that helped me progress in just a couple of sessions.
Although English is her second language, she communicates incredibly well and always understands where I'm coming from on a cultural level. I've never felt like there’s any barrier. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive and effective therapist.

Hong is a great therapist. She understands what I’m going through as a middle aged man and has been really helpful in easing my mind by helping me understand what I’m going through while helping me be introspective about my marital problems and how I can think about them too better ease my mind.
No therapist can solve your problems, but they can help you to understand what the root causes within your own mindset is and help you find coping mechanisms to better deal with them.
