Introduction

Welcome to Soul Tea Therapy! My name is Serena Lee and I am a licensed clinical social worker that specializes in treating trauma, dissociative experiences, and intense emotions, among many other related struggles. As a Taiwanese-American therapist with my own story of healing from trauma and mental health challenges, I commit to attuning to and honoring your unique needs, struggles, and hopes with empathy, curiosity, and groundedness. If you've ever experienced trauma, then you know first hand the ways it often casts shadows on your everyday life. Maybe dissociation and constant internal conflicts make you feel disoriented, and triggers seem to be everywhere that cause intense emotional rollercoasters. Perhaps relationships seem too difficult, boundaries impossible to implement, and love and care feel beyond your reach. If this resonates with you, we may be a good fit! Our work together can help you discover and love all parts of yourself, heal painful wounds from past trauma, and forge a path towards a life of clarity, peace, and authenticity. We will do more than just talk about the day to day struggles, but also make tangible changes that can free suppressed emotions and parts of yourself longing for nurturance and acceptance. Feel free to visit my website soulteatherapy.com for more information and ways to contact me! We can schedule a telehealth video session or an in person session in Santa Barbara, CA where my office is located. Looking forward to meeting you!
