About Yen-Pei
Yen-Pei Huang is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 14 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship and intimacy issues, and concerns about life purpose. Sessions are conducted in English and Mandarin.
Yen-Pei uses a client-centered, collaborative style. She helps people notice patterns in their thinking and behavior, and then tests small changes. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy ideas when those approaches fit. Mindfulness techniques are also used to help with anxiety and mood regulation.
Her training includes an undergraduate degree in clinical psychology and a counseling master’s from a CACREP accredited program at Indiana University Bloomington. That background informs how she blends assessment and practical therapy techniques. She describes therapy as a process of learning about oneself and trying new ways of coping.
In sessions she often focuses on concrete skills and short-term goals alongside deeper personal themes. This can include communication practice, strategies for managing panic or anger, and steps to work through grief or past trauma. She also supports people dealing with immigration concerns, multicultural stress, and challenges around aging.
Outside of clinical work she spends time backpacking and brings an open-minded approach to working with diverse communities. People who value practical techniques combined with reflective work may find her style a fit.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what the person brings to sessions, which helps when exploring life purpose or relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect behavior and mood, and it uses concrete exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce anxiety and improve moment-to-moment awareness.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. She will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what feels useful. The therapist and client work together to find a mix of techniques that fits the person’s needs and preferences.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a work break, voice-only conversations when bandwidth is limited, or video meetings for exercises that use facial cues. These practical benefits help people maintain continuity of care while balancing everyday demands.
