Shumin Guo is a bilingual Mandarin-English therapist licensed in New York and New Jersey, with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals through periods of emotional difficulty and transition. Her approach is thoughtful, integrative, and grounded in the belief that greater self-awareness can create meaningful possibilities for change. She works collaboratively with clients to better understand themselves, make intentional choices, and move beyond patterns that may no longer serve them.

Shumin specializes in trauma, grief and loss, depression, and life transitions. She works with clients who may feel stuck in the past, overwhelmed by difficult emotions, disconnected from themselves, or uncertain about what comes next. Drawing from Gestalt therapy, EMDR, DBT-informed practices, and culturally responsive care, she helps clients explore the connection between their thoughts, emotions, bodies, and past experiences.

“You don’t have to have everything figured out. Our needs often emerge through exploration and experience. Together, we can explore what troubles you, what you need, and how to support yourself. I invite you to reach out and see if we might be a good fit. Even if we don’t work together, I want to honor how far you’ve carried yourself through difficult times, and I wish you all the best.”
