Summary
Practice Description
Welcome! I'm Shirley, and I established my private practice to support those who hold so much. I know firsthand what it feels like to be the one holding everything together, and the deep exhaustion that comes from perpetual striving.
Many of my clients are high-achieving Asian and Asian American professionals who are accustomed to prioritizing everyone else. They come to therapy looking to understand the toll that ambition, burnout, and career transitions have taken, while still honoring their sense of purpose.
Therapy offers a vital space to pause, step out of overdrive, and tend to what has been neglected. My approach is relational, culturally attuned, and depth-oriented. Together, we move at a pace that honors both your ambition and your tenderness, creating a life that feels genuinely aligned and alive.
Beginning therapy is an act of listening inward to what is yearning for care. If you feel called to explore working together, I invite you to visit my website https://shirleyley.com/book-consultation/ to complete a brief consultation request form, allowing us to sense into how we might begin this work together.

I’m able to bill Lyra Health for up to 3 sessions. Beyond that, I can also work with you as an out-of-network provider. I’d recommend checking directly with your health insurance plan to see what out-of-network mental health coverage or reimbursement options you might have available.
