Profile

Muzi Chen, LMHCA

Description of Counselor/Practice

- Anxiety/Depression - Multicultural issues - Relationship issues - Life transitions - Social stress - Trauma - Grief and loss I work with children, adolescents, and adults. I am here to support you and invite you to this comfortable and safe space where you are free to explore yourself without judgment. The foundation of my client-centered approach is founded on the idea that you are the expert on your own life, experiences, and emotions. In our sessions, I provide a compassionate and empathetic environment where you can feel safe and understood. We work collaboratively, focusing on your unique needs, goals, and values. I also incorporate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Existential Therapy. Together, we will explore your beliefs and values, examine the effectiveness of established coping strategies, and transfer the learned skills to facilitate decision-making and create new life meanings. I earned my Master's degrees in Counseling Mental Health Services and Professional Counseling at the University of Pennsylvania and acquired my Bachelor's degree in Clinical Psychology at UC San Diego. I have worked in community health and non-profit organization settings, providing in-person and virtual services to people of diverse backgrounds and ages. More personally, my cross-cultural experiences and identity as an Asian have led me to incorporate the multicultural lens into my counseling practice. I enjoy learning about different cultures through languages. I am bilingual (Mandarin and English) and interested in leveling my language skills in Korean and Japanese.
