About YiChing

YiChing Trenkamp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana. She has three years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, and sleep-related concerns. YiChing offers a calm presence and practical help for everyday problems and big transitions.

Her approach is conversational and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on noticing what matters to the person and trying small changes that fit daily life. She blends methods that help people change unhelpful thoughts, practice new skills, and clarify values so choices feel more purposeful.

YiChing works with people facing depression, grief, substance use concerns, eating and body image issues, and mood swings. She also supports folks dealing with parenting strain, caregiver stress, cultural adjustment, and issues tied to identity and intimacy. Sleeping and rest concerns are part of her practice when they come up alongside these challenges.

Language options include English and Mandarin. YiChing aims to create a space where clients feel heard and can slow down enough to notice patterns that keep them stuck. Therapy combines listening with active skills practice so changes carry into everyday life.

She helps clients set clear goals, try new behaviors between sessions, and adjust plans when something does not fit. The process is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs and schedule.

How her approaches fit online and in-session

YiChing commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then taking values-based steps toward a more meaningful life; it can help with anxiety, low mood, and problems with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, panic, sleep problems, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. She will work collaboratively to choose which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust plans as progress is made or obstacles appear.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shave travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk therapy done remotely still includes skill practice, homework, and goal tracking, so people can apply what they learn to daily life without requiring a change in location.
