About Ying
Ying Kam is a licensed clinical social worker with 12 years of practice in California. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with mood and behavior challenges, including depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, addictions, grief, and low self-esteem. Ying speaks English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.
She has worked in many settings such as outpatient clinics, hospitals, community programs, in-home care, and schools. That variety shaped a straight-forward, hands-on approach to therapy that aims to be practical and responsive to daily life. Sessions tend to focus on identifying patterns, solving problems, and building motivation for change.
Ying uses a mix of evidence-based techniques to tailor sessions to each person’s needs. She helps people look closely at their thoughts, feelings, and actions, and supports them while they try new ways of coping. The style is both supportive and directive, designed to reduce ambivalence and boost follow-through.
Parents who need help with stress or parenting concerns can expect concrete strategies and problem-solving. People dealing with relationship or intimacy issues are offered ways to improve communication and manage strong emotions. Ying also offers guidance around sleep, eating, career stress, and anger so daily functioning can feel more manageable.
Her goal is to walk alongside clients as they make changes and build more confidence. To begin, clients choose the continue button on this profile, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.
