Areas of Expertise
Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation, Medication Management and Individual psychotherapy
At Zen Mind Mental Health Center, I offer a wide range of services to help individuals achieve their mental health goals. I am experienced in providing compassionate and nonjudgemental sessions to individuals seeking mental health care and treatment. I specialize in anxiety, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), mood disorders, trauma, and PTSD. I am available in person and through telehealth. My services are designed to meet the unique needs of each individual client using a collaborative and shared decision-making approach.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR uses a set of procedures to organize your negative and positive feelings, emotions, and thoughts, and then uses bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements or alternating tapping, as the way to help you effectively work through disturbing memories. EMDR processing helps you break through the emotional blocks that are keeping you from living an adaptive, emotionally healthy life.
Internal Family System (IFS)
I am Level 2 trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) through the IFS Institute. IFS is an evidence-based therapy model that views the mind as naturally made up of different “parts,” guided by a core Self that holds the capacity for healing. Through IFS, I help individuals compassionately understand and heal protective and wounded parts, fostering greater self-awareness, emotional balance, and inner connection.
About me
Hello everyone. My name is Tina Wu. I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and psychotherapist. I speak English, Cantonese and Mandarin. I graduated from New York University (NYU) with my master's and doctorate degree in Nursing Practice. I have over 10 years of working in the field of nursing, where I discovered that we oftentimes neglect mental health and focus on the treatment of physical health. This brought me to the path of psychiatry where I trained in how to support individuals through their most difficult times. I truly believe that the mind and body are connected, and healing starts with compassion and love. Most of my clinical training was at a renowned Community Health Care Center where I saw patients across the lifespan. My approach is culturally informed, nonjudgmental, collaborative, holistic and integrative.
