Yen-Pei Huang, LPC

Yen-Pei Huang is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 14 years of experience helping adults and families navigate life transitions, mood concerns, and relationship challenges. She approaches therapy as a collaborative journey, believing that people have the capacity to heal and find their own meaningful directions. In session she emphasizes self-discovery and practical strategies so clients can better manage stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and other life difficulties.

Her training includes an undergraduate degree in clinical psychology and a graduate counseling education from a CACREP accredited program at Indiana University Bloomington, giving her a solid foundation in assessment, diagnosis, and counseling techniques. Her practice is integrative and client-centered, drawing from cognitive behavioral methods, Gestalt approaches, narrative perspectives, and expressive art interventions when appropriate to meet each person’s needs.

Yen-Pei works with a broad range of concerns including depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, parenting and family problems, communication and intimacy issues, and multicultural and aging-related topics. She is bilingual in English and Mandarin and brings an open-minded, flexible stance informed by experience with diverse communities. Outside of work she is an avid backpacker, a personal interest that complements her strengths in resilience and exploration.

Therapeutic Approaches for Remote Care

Yen-Pei Huang draws on client-centered therapy to create a warm, respectful environment where clients lead the pace and topics of work while she listens and reflects to support personal insight and growth. This approach is helpful for people facing relationship, identity, or life-purpose questions because it centers the client’s own values and choices.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. Mindfulness therapy is incorporated when helpful to build present-moment awareness and stress management skills that complement other strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Yen-Pei collaborates with each person to tailor methods to their goals, preferences, and life context. She works with clients to try strategies, adjust as needed, and prioritize what feels most useful.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access care from home, balance work and family commitments, and maintain continuity of support when life circumstances change. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt tools and exercises effectively across these modes to support progress.
