One of the best therapist I've met on Betterhelp! This is coming from someone that had to constantly switch their therapist. I'm glad I found Ms.Wu, because without her guidance, I think I would have been lost right now! Thank you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Excellent, she listens to me carefully and provides good techniques to help me cope with my loss.
Fang Yi is an intelligent Asian woman therapist who can understand and adapt to every culture. She made me calm down, heard, and guided me while I was facing my childhood trauma, worked thru it and now I am feeling like a whole new person with tools to go on when facing difficulty. We need more people like her in this world!!! Thank you so much Fang Yi ♥️
Fang has a very high level of patience and understanding, and also has a diverse variety of tools to help in your journey. Very thoughtful approaches to identifying problem areas for me especially. 10/10
Fang-Yi Wu has been SO helpful. I wasn’t sure what to expect to be honest, I have some past trauma’s that need to be worked through and boy did we dive in and i’m so glad i took the plunge. Every session I learn SO much and let go of so much. It’s been such an eye opening and healing experience with each session going deeper. I’m so thankful to her. Highly recommend!
Fang-Yi has been an indispensable pillar of support throughout my journey. Her attentive, genuinely caring nature, coupled with her constructive advice and recognition, has made each session invaluable. Engaging with Fang-Yi is not just therapy; it's a joyous occasion filled with enriching conversations and profound insights. With her support, I've gained a deeper understanding of myself, my emotions, and the patterns that shape my experiences. I'm immensely grateful at every step of this transformative journey.
She was great! She was very patient and understood my issues well. Only worked with her for a few sessions but in that short span she gave me many tools to continue improving my mental health.
I am very grateful to her! I thought we would be challenged due to English not being her primary language, but I’m glad I gave myself the opportunity to learn from her. She is very kind and explains processes very well. She has definitely helped me become a better ME.
Fang-Yi Wu is great at helping you understand yourself.
