Yidong Sun, LMHC

Yidong Sun is a Chinese psychotherapist licensed in New York, with specialized training in couples therapy, family therapy, and relationship issues. She is passionate about helping individuals through emotional and experience-based psychoanalysis. As a Chinese psychotherapist, Yidong listens deeply to your story, focusing not just on what you say but on the emotions and experiences behind your words. Your stories are like little beads on a necklace; we will find the thread to connect all the beads together. This process of understanding can help you see your past in a new light, creating space for relief and clarity.

Yidong’s approach helps you develop the ability to observe your “inner theater” and gain a deeper sense of self-awareness. This self-understanding empowers you to make better decisions in your life, with a greater sense of emotional balance and control.

A graduate of Columbia University, Yidong earned her Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology in 2017. To provide the highest quality of care, she has undergone extensive self-psychoanalysis and weekly supervision from an experienced analyst for many years. She believes that self-understanding creates lasting change and can bring comfort during challenging times. Since 2022, Yidong has been receiving advanced training from the Ackerman Institute for the Family, further enhancing her skills in working with families and couples.

As an international student who came to the U.S. for college and built her life here, Yidong deeply understands the emotional impact of change and loss. Her personal journey shapes her work as a Chinese psychotherapist, and she hopes to accompany you on your journey — helping you explore your past, navigate your present, and move forward into your future with greater clarity and peace.
