Psychotherapist Yin Li, LMFT has been wanting to put together a resource for Asian Americans similar to Therapy for Black Girls or Therapy for Latinx since the Asian American community doesn't have one.
Still in development, but take a look at this first go:
The goal of the site is:
1) normalize therapy services in Asian communities by sharing stories of Asian Americans in therapy
2) lowers the barriers of access through culturally relevant information and resources
Additional parts that are forthcoming are:
- social media presence
- podcast
- blog articles from Asian American clinicians
- therapist directory (or connecting to an existing one)
Want to help?
1) If you know of folks (celebrities, influencers, everyday folks) who want to share their experience in therapy as Asian Americans, Yin Li, LMFT would love to get connected with them.
2) if you have non-academic articles, books.videos, podcasts episodes that you like on Asian American psychology, experiences in therapy, mental health, wellness, please send them to Yin Li's, way.
3) if you know someone who knows about podcasting (the technical aspects) and interested in collaborating, let her know too!
Here's how to get in touch with someone who's making a difference in the Asian American community:
