I am a national certified counselor (NBCC) and a licensed mental health counselor in the state of New York. I have been working in the field of mental health counseling for eight years, helping people from different backgrounds as they struggle with anxiety, depression, grief after losses, couples issues and stress and trauma-related disorders. I consider it a privilege to work supporting people as they face life's challenges, providing emotional support, and working collaboratively to learn positive ways to cope and to find appropriate solutions. This means that I do not presume to have all the answers but I can work with you to help you find them. Nor I see my role as a counselor as someone who has to give you advice in every session. Instead, I respect and acknowledge my clients as people with strengths, experiences and emotional and intellectual intelligences who have the capacity to find solutions with the appropriate support and collaboration. Together we will explore your current situation, identify specific issues you want to work on, set goals and explore solutions.

Hello there and welcome to BetterHelp! Thank you for reading about me and the work that I do. I am Dr. Lusa Hung and I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist serving clients who reside in California, Washington, and New York. I received my Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) degree at Argosy University/Honolulu in 2005, with a specialization in Diversity. I have been a licensed psychologist since 2008. Psychology has always been a passion of mine in some shape or form. Helping people live their most vibrant and fulfilling lives with meaning and purpose is my aim. I have 12 years of clinical experience working with culturally diverse populations in international and domestic settings. I would describe my approach to be mindfulness-based with a blend of cognitive behavioral strategies, a person-centered stance, and Motivational Interviewing techniques. I have expertise treating a wide range of psychological and life challenges spanning the spectrum of depression, trauma, anxiety, life adjustments, grief and loss, relationship challenges, and improving health behaviors, serving people across the lifespan and in different clinical settings. I have served individuals in the U.S., China and Germany and have come to understand how universal and connected all human experiences are. At the same time, I also appreciate how each person has a unique way of living these shared experiences. I am mindful about any contributions from the individual's social-cultural background, taking time to see from that person's perspective and not my own assumptions. My clients are my biggest therapy teachers, helping me balance theory with what really works in real life. Not only do my clients learn from me, I also learn from them, both as my clients and as fellow human beings. Therapy is a dance between the client and the therapist, sometimes the client leads, sometimes they follow. The journey is not always pleasant or easy but with openness and courage, you will find that things will become more clear and you can then set your intention and take purposeful steps to live life in the way you actually want. I believe that the therapist can provide guidance, support and expertise within a unique and safe relationship and can shape the conversations to promote the changes that the client wants to make. I help people reframe challenging and often painful events in their lives so that not only does the frame change, so does the picture. Turning pain and loss into wisdom, guilt into gratitude, and shifting from avoidance to awareness are ways that can be helpful. I wish you luck on your journey of well-being. I hope I can be of help to you. Be well!

Welcome! I imagine it took a bit of bravery and courage to take the steps you have taken just to get to this point. I recognize that selecting a therapist is no easy feat so I hope to tell you a bit about myself so that you can make the best decision for you. I also want to wish you the best of luck on your journey, wherever it may take you. I have been a therapist for approximately 12 years now following receiving my Master's degree in Social Work from New York University. I have had the great pleasure and luxury of working with many different populations throughout my career in a variety of settings that have been great preparation for the changing world we live in. I have worked with families coping with transitions, couples looking to grow in their relationships and, most significantly, with individuals just like you who are seeking an improved quality of life and that is fulfilling and purpose filled. I have also been able to work abroad as I lived in Shanghai, China for 3 years which helped to give me a global view of experiences and the realization that many of our struggles in life are more shared then we are aware of. My approach is one that considers you to be in the drivers seat. The therapy I relate most to is called person centered with a bit of cognitive behavioral approaches and certainly is psychodynamic. All of that to say I feel quite comfortable adjusting our work together to be what you need it to be while applying some techniques that have been researched and proven successful for others. The goal generally is to support and guide you on your path towards improvement while recognizing that you are the expert in who you are and how you see your life. I want to reiterate that this really is your journey and that you have already taken a huge step forward in taking care of yourself and being vulnerable, which I greatly admire. We get one shot at this thing called life. Kudos to you for wanting to get the most out of it.
