Individual therapy
I offer individual therapy in Maryland and New York. Here’s everything you need to know to get started.
Reclaim Asian American Womanhood
Reclaim Asian American Womanhood is an Internal Family Systems-informed group for Asian American women to heal from gendered racial trauma.
Consultation
I offer decolonizing, psychodynamic, trauma- and Internal Family Systems-informed consultation to licensed clinicians seeking help with cases involving trauma and dissociation (including dissociative identity disorder), co-morbid substance use, grief, intersecting social and personal identities, racial trauma, and cross-cultural and intergenerational considerations.
I can also help licensed BIPOC providers cultivate a nourishing private practice that is aligned with their values; treat racial microaggressions made by clients as teachable, reparative moments; heal from racial trauma; and/or invite more playfulness and open-heartedness into their work.
Please e-mail me (natalie@nataliehung.com) to see if we’d be a good fit.
Individual Therapy
First steps
Phone: Contact me for a free video consultation. I'll introduce myself, answer any questions, and discuss your needs for treatment. If you choose to move forward, we'll schedule an appointment for an initial 50-minute consultation.
Initial consultation: In our first session, you'll have a chance to see how I work as we discuss your history and treatment goals, and see if we're a good match. I'll provide my impressions and treatment recommendations, and provide referrals if I don’t think we’re a good fit.
Psychotherapy: If we agree to work together in psychotherapy, we'll tailor a treatment plan for you and discuss the terms of treatment (including frequency, priorities, and mutual expectations). In general, I offer 50-minute sessions, once or twice weekly, depending on your needs and preferences.
Fee & Insurance
Maryland: My fee is $200 for a 50-minute psychotherapy or consultation session.
New York: My fee is $300 for a 50-minute psychotherapy or consultation session.
I am an out-of-network provider for most insurance companies. This means that after you meet your deductible, most insurance providers will reimburse you for a portion of the session fee. I can provide a superbill with the information you need for reimbursement.
Check with your insurance company about your out-of-network insurance benefits for mental health services.
Some questions you may ask:
Is a pre-authorization or referral from a physician required for treatment?
What is my deductible amount? How much do I have remaining?
What percentage of the psychotherapy session fee is reimbursed?
Is there a maximum covered amount per session?
Is there a limit on number of sessions covered per year?
When does the year begin?
Are certain diagnoses covered/not covered?
How do I file a claim?
Reclaim Asian American Womanhood
A Decolonizing, Internal Family Systems (IFS) Informed Therapy Group
Connect with other Asian American women who get it and restore your sense of dignity, belonging, and empowerment.
You may be a good fit for this group if you:
Are an Asian American woman
Live in Maryland or New York (or can be located there for sessions)
Often feel "not Asian enough” and/or “too Asian” depending on the context
Struggle to navigate predominately white environments and relationships
Often feel obligated to prioritize white people’s comfort at your own expense
Feel unsure of how to respond to microaggressions
Are tired of having to explain your gendered racialized experience and still feel like people don’t get it
Feel gaslit by others and yourself when speaking about hurtful racialized experiences
Feel chronically unseen as an Asian American woman, even by those close to you
Are committed to social justice, but feel a lack of clarity about your position within existing conversations
About the group
Spurred by rising anti-Asian hate and the Atlanta Spa shootings, I started this group in 2022 to close the gap between Asian American women’s need for support and the relative lack of available Asian American providers. I quickly realized that the group itself was a powerful conduit for individual and collective healing, and that Asian American women have a vital role to play in decolonization and imagining new ways of relating to the world.
The group content is inspired by my research on Asian American racialization, psychology, and psychoanalysis; my clinical experience with 1.5 and 2nd generation Asian American women; my training as a trauma and Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist; and my lived experience as a cishet 2nd generation Taiwanese American woman.
This group offers:
community and a sense of belonging with people who get it without explanation
guided in-depth exploration and clarification of your gendered racialized identities
language and frameworks for describing and understanding gendered Asian American racialization and its impact
potent skills for independent therapeutic work
a deeper connection to yourself and others
more confidence to take up space and find support in your life
an increased sense of compassion and self-acceptance, especially with regard to gendered Asian American racialization
extensive resources for further individual and collective healing
