Alex Tsai, MBA, MA, LMFT
Certified EFT Therapist
Bay Area | San Carlos | San Mateo Psychotherapist
After a transition from Asia to the U.S. and the transformation from business to counseling, I know we all have the power to create an authentic life we aspire to.
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT#96390), licensed in the state of California. With a caring and non-judgmental approach, I work with clients to support them developing personalized and attainable goals to enhance the quality of life. I have extensive experience working with adults, young adults, adolescents facing a wide range of challenges, such as trauma, depression, anxiety, dual-diagnosis, phases of life issues, family conflicts, and relationship difficulties in individual, couples, and family psychotherapy.
I am a depth-oriented psychotherapist, and my therapy style draws from training in Jungian, attachment-based, and psychodynamic psychotherapy, with a goal to promote psychological growth and pursue "individuation," a process of developing an authentic connection with one's inner self. In addition, I am particularly interested in dreams, images, symbols, and have been leading "Dream work" groups to support clients healing from mood symptoms, exploring life purposes, and repairing relationships with self and others. I support each client to explore and understand the connection between the conscious and unconscious mind to pursue one's authentic goals. I also have extensive trainings in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples and am a certified EFT therapist by ICEEFT. I find it both meaningful and rewarding to participate in each client and couple's journey, and create positive changes through our therapeutic sessions. With my training and experience, I have developed expertise to support clients in following areas,
I am a strong advocate of cultural diversity with valuable professional and personal experience, including working with minorities, LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer), and women, etc., as well as actively participating in supporting LGBTQ community. As an immigrant myself, I also understand the challenges of relocating to a new country, and appreciate the values each of us brings. In addition, I am affiliated with California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT), International Center for Excellence in Emotionally Focused Therapy (ICEEFT) and The Psychotherapist Association for Gender & Sexual Diversity.
