About Yangyang
Yangyang Xie is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She draws on practical approaches to help clients build confidence and cope with strong emotions. Yangyang speaks English, Mandarin, and Cantonese and is based in California.
Her work centers on building stronger emotional connections and clearer personal values. She uses Attachment-Based ideas to notice how past relationships shape current reactions.
Background and approach
She pairs that with tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients take meaningful steps toward what matters to them. Sessions tend to be collaborative and straightforward. Yangyang treats each person as the expert on their life and helps them notice strengths they already have.
She offers coaching on communication, managing panic or mood shifts, and addressing guilt or shame in day-to-day life. Over six years she has worked with concerns such as parenting strain, divorce and separation, loneliness, and social anxiety. Her approach also includes techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy when those fit a person's needs.
Clients can expect practical skills, short-term coping strategies, and attention to underlying relational patterns. Yangyang supports people who want clearer direction, better emotional regulation, and more self-compassion as they make changes.

Online support
How attachment and action work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier bonds affect feelings and reactions today, helping people notice relationship patterns that keep them stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches values-based action and simple acceptance skills so people can move toward a meaningful life even when emotions are strong. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behavior steps to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic.Yangyang approaches this work collaboratively. She will discuss different approaches and help decide which methods match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. That conversation is part of early sessions and can change over time as goals evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work visually through emotions and body cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on busy days. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, practicing skills between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make scheduling more flexible and let therapy fit into varied routines.
