We Help You Find the Right Therapist
Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming, especially when language, culture, schedule, and insurance are important considerations.
Our care team will ask:
- What kind of support you are seeking
- Whether you prefer Mandarin, English, or both languages
- Whether you want to use insurance
- Which appointment times work for you
- Whether you prefer in-person or online therapy
- What qualities are important to you in a therapist
We will use this information to determine whether our Mandarin-speaking therapist is a good fit for your needs and preferences. If another member of our team would be more appropriate, we will help you understand your available options.
If you begin therapy and feel that the match is not right, let us know. We can reevaluate what you are looking for and help you change therapists without completing the entire intake process again.
Questions and Answers About Mandarin-Speaking Therapy
Q: Do you offer therapy completely in Mandarin Chinese?
A: Yes. Our bilingual therapist can provide sessions in Mandarin Chinese, English, or a combination of both languages based on your preference.
Q: Can I work with a Mandarin-speaking therapist but have my sessions in English?
A: Yes. You can conduct therapy entirely in English while working with a therapist who also speaks Mandarin. Some clients value having a therapist who understands Mandarin language and cultural context even when English is their preferred language for therapy.
Q: Do you offer Mandarin-speaking therapy for teens?
A: Yes. Our Mandarin-speaking therapist works with teens navigating anxiety, depression, academic pressure, perfectionism, self-esteem, identity, relationships, family expectations, and emotional regulation.
Q: Do you offer couples or family therapy in Mandarin?
A: Yes. Therapy may help couples and families improve communication, reduce conflict, strengthen emotional connection, navigate cultural or generational differences, and establish healthier boundaries.
Couples and family therapy are generally offered as private-pay services.
Q: Can I receive Mandarin-speaking therapy online?
A: Yes. Aspire Counseling Group offers online therapy in Mandarin Chinese and English for clients located throughout California when online care is clinically appropriate.
Online therapy may be especially helpful if you live outside the Arcadia area, have a demanding schedule, or have difficulty finding a Mandarin-speaking therapist near you.
Q: Do you accept insurance?
A: Yes. Aspire Counseling Group accepts select insurance plans for individual therapy. Your specific coverage, copay, and deductible depend on your individual insurance plan.
Our team can help verify your benefits before your first appointment. Couples and family therapy are generally offered as private-pay services.
Q: Should I use insurance or pay privately for therapy?
A: This is a personal decision based on your coverage, budget, privacy preferences, and the type of therapy you are seeking. Some people use insurance to reduce their immediate out-of-pocket costs. Others choose to pay privately even when they have insurance because they prefer greater privacy, flexibility, or control over their care.
Using insurance generally requires the therapist to submit a diagnosis and information needed to process claims. With private pay, Aspire does not submit a claim or diagnosis to your insurance company. A confidential clinical record is still maintained as required by professional and legal standards.
If you request a detailed statement, known as a superbill, and submit it to your insurance company for possible reimbursement, some information will be shared with the insurance company.
Our care team can explain the available options so you can make the decision that feels right for you.
Q: Do I have to choose a therapist myself?
A: No. Our team will ask about your concerns, goals, language preference, schedule, insurance coverage, and the qualities that are important to you. We will help determine whether our Mandarin-speaking therapist is a good fit.
Q: What if my therapist does not feel like the right fit?
A: We want you to feel comfortable with your therapist. If the match does not feel right, we can reevaluate your preferences and help you change therapists without repeating the entire intake process.
Q: When can I get started?
A: Same-week, evening, and weekend appointments are currently available. Availability depends on the therapist, your scheduling needs, whether you prefer in-person or online therapy, and whether you plan to use insurance.
Our care team will help you identify the earliest appropriate appointment.
