Hi, I’m Corrina Liu (刘爽)
I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor based in California.
I specialize in supporting professionals in high-stress fields—technology, consulting, finance, and medicine—who are navigating anxiety, perfectionism, and relationship concerns. My practice is culturally responsive and LGBTQ-affirming, and I also work with clients experiencing major life transitions, immigration and cross-cultural challenges, and perinatal mental health needs.
My approach is grounded, relational, and deeply human. I bring my whole self into the therapy room—my life experiences living across cultures, my professional background in multiple industries, my wide-ranging and extensive clinical training, and the personal therapeutic work I have done over the years. This allows me to connect with clients quickly, understand what truly matters beneath the surface, and meet them with empathy and clarity. I offer a balance of warmth and gentle, thoughtful challenge to support meaningful and lasting change.
