About Jem Wong

Hi and Welcome!

My therapeutic focus is on improving the quality of relationships in one's life through a trauma informed, holistic lens. This means that I will get really curious with you about all the areas of your life and wellness. I am not a quick fix or short-term therapist. If you are looking for a space that can hold nuance, authenticity, and depth, without pressure or performance, you’ll likely feel comfortable with me.

Relationships involve your experience with yourself and others and may include food, sex, your body, work, and money. I help you get curious about the patterns you carry, so you can build new ways of relating that actually reflect who you are, not just what kept you safe before.

I work with partners knowing that people vary in how much intimacy and closeness they need and that those differences are often exactly where conflict lives. My goal is to help you understand each other's inner workings well enough that conflict can become a doorway to more intimacy, not less.

Before I was a therapist, I was a CPA in the fast-paced world of investing. I grew up between cultures, taught yoga and meditation, and published academic research. None of that got left behind when I became a therapist. It's all still in the room with us: an eye for pattern and structure from years in finance, a felt sense of what it means to hold two worlds at once, a body-based lens from years of yoga, meditation, and somatic training.
