Welcome.
My name is Jessica Lan (she/her), and I am a first-generation Asian American Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #134412). I provide compassionate, culturally attuned online mental health services to individuals across California, including the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and the San Gabriel Valley. Born and raised in the East Bay Area, I now serve clients from my home base in the Greater Los Angeles region. I am a strong advocate for Asian & Asian American mental health and fostering community.
What Brings You Here?
Do you feel like you’re never good enough, no matter how much you achieve? Are you constantly juggling family expectations, career pressures, and personal goals, only to feel misunderstood or dissatisfied? Perhaps you’re stuck in a cycle of overachievement, feeling burned out but unsure how to stop, or struggling with family conflicts that leave you emotionally drained. I specialize in helping Asian and Asian American adults who feel the weight of cultural and generational pressures, providing support to address stress, self-doubt, and the deep sense of being stuck. Together, we can work toward breaking these patterns and building a life that feels fulfilling and aligned with your values.​​
