Telehealth & In-office Visits

Dr. Jing Xu

Welcome! If you're looking for therapy for yourself or a loved one, know that you are taking a brave step toward a better life! 

I’m Dr. Jing Xu. I speak English and Mandarin fluently, having graduated from Stanford University, Santa Clara University, and California Southern University. 

In our sessions, I will encourage you to bravely face some of the deeper troubles within, such as feeling inadequate, dissatisfaction with interpersonal relationships, feeling misunderstood and disrespected, disappointment with work, life, and romantic relationships, lack of love/love addiction, fear of illness, obsession and compulsion, anxiety, insomnia, and more. Many of these troubles stem from our early life experiences and can affect our behaviors, emotions, and relationships for many years, sometimes even developing into personality disorders. Without careful reflection, we might not even be aware of how these hidden, inherent patterns cause us distress and limitation. Through non-judgmental listening and insightful thinking, I will facilitate you in identifying and analyzing the different, inherent patterns that hinder your thoughts and actions, and assisting you in building and developing healthier and more balanced new ways to alleviate your emotional and behavioral burdens.

As a mother of two children, I have deep insights and understanding of how women can navigate multiple social roles and balance self-care. As a first-generation immigrant who has lived in the United States for nearly 20 years, I am acutely aware of the developmental opportunities and limitations different cultures can impose on first-generation immigrants. I will help you with better cultural adaptation and draw from the strengths of both cultures to advance your career and enrich your life.

Additionally, my educational background and experience working in elementary and secondary schools have given me a greater understanding of the psychological development of children and adolescents. I can provide professional guidance and support for them and their families facing growth and transition challenges. Whether dealing with academic pressure, social difficulties, or family relationship issues, I will guide them to find effective ways to cope with and solve problems, enabling them to face various challenges of growth with more confidence and flexibility while also improving family relationships. 

I am also involved in neurological and psychological assessments in our clinic, including ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), Autism Spectrum Disorders, IQ tests, and assessments for gifted children and adolescents.

I hope to accompany you through the lows of life, encouraging you and supporting you in the healing process, to help you break free from mental shackles and constraints, and achieve true inner freedom.

Q & A

Do you accept insurance?

Jing only takes self-pay clients at this point. As an out-of-network provider, if you use our services, you will be expected to pay the full fee yourself. We offer you Superbill receipts for the service you receive from us, and you can submit them to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Most insurance companies may cover part of the fee (50-80% typically) for out-of-network providers like us. For assessments/neuropsychological evaluations, please contact your insurance company for pre-approval for this service.

Jing also offers a sliding-scale fee for psychological assessments, such as IQ test, and ADHD/ ASD diagnostic tests. Please see our assessment page for more information.
