About Wenrui

Trained in EMDR and Internal Family System (IFS), Wenrui uses her genuine interest in people’s history, ways of being, and potential within them to heal to guide her counseling technique. She values every client’s unique pace in forming a relationship and allows an authentic connection to grow through the safe, and nurturing space she cultivates.

Wenrui is dedicated to helping clients find greater confidence in their capabilities, clarity of their past, and motivation for the future to achieve deep healing. She understands that this takes time and advocates for patience with the process while offering full acceptance.

Trauma’s ability to profoundly impact the body influences Wenrui’s value in the importance of not only our minds in therapy but also our bodies. Considering cultural influence, she believes that many people express or feel emotions almost only through their body reactions but overlook the meaning of their physical discomfort.

She assures her clients that although it can be confusing or even scary to discover the messages our body sends us, she is there to make you feel confident and comfortable to begin your journey toward mental and physical healing.

In her free time, Wenrui loves making art—recently she’s been working on Macrame and paper rose projects. She believes art teaches her how to be patient and builds her resilience, seeing how small steps make big differences when you’re creating something beautiful.

While also a fan of having deep conversations, laughing and being “silly” with her 7-year-old daughter is a favorite in Wenrui’s daily routine. She cherishes life through her gratitude for these memorable moments and is passionate about living to the fullest.

Please be aware that Wenrui cannot offer in-person crisis intervention. Please call or text 988, the mental health crisis line, if you need to talk.
