Contact Dr. Lin

Please note:  I have very limited availability.  

I’m happy to offer a free initial, 20-minute telephone or online video consultation to further determine if we are an appropriate fit for each other. Typical individual counseling sessions are 50 minutes in duration.  (I only have therapy hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays during the day.) 

Office Location

(only offering telehealth at this time)

San Jose, CA

on Muwekma Ohlone land.

Please call 408-828-8375 or email me below or at ellenjlin@gmail.com to schedule an appointment or to inquire further. I welcome any questions you may have.

Please note my general policy for cancellations or no-shows:  Please remember to cancel or reschedule 24 hours in advance. You will be responsible for the ENTIRE fee if cancellation is less than 24 hours, unless in unusual circumstances.  Exceptions will be discussed individually.   This is necessary because a time commitment is made to you and is held exclusively for you.  If you are late for a session, you will lose that respective session time.
