About Po

Po Yee Fung is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) and a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in California with ten years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns. Sessions are offered in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.

Po Yee draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). She helps people name hard emotions, notice relationship patterns, and improve how they communicate. That can include addressing attachment issues, abandonment, codependency, and commitment problems.

Her practice attends to family of origin issues, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and struggles with forgiveness. She also works with people facing domestic violence history, isolation or loneliness, and midlife transitions. Multicultural concerns are part of the work she does with clients.

Po Yee emphasizes practical skills alongside emotional exploration. That can mean learning tools for managing mood, practicing new communication habits, or using strategies to reduce avoidance and anxious responses. The work often blends talking with skill-building exercises.

People who choose to work with her are asked to use the site process to match and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How EFT and skills-based therapy work in online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotions that drive relationship patterns and personal distress. It helps people notice how feelings influence reactions and interactions, which can open space for different choices in relationships and self-management.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) works on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where people want clearer direction and more flexible responses.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental listening stance and supports people as they make sense of their experiences. It can help when someone needs a steady, respectful space to process emotions and decide on next steps.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals, needs, and preferences. That means revisiting tools and strategies as progress is made and adjusting the focus when necessary.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the therapist's biography did not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or reducing the need to be on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, communication coaching, and skills practice to remote sessions so therapy can be practical and actionable.
