A Little About Me
Hello, my name is Manna Chan. I am a licensed psychotherapist dedicated to supporting your journey towards complete well-being.
With over 25 years of experience in clinical leadership, I have had the privilege of helping many find healing and strength. As the former Senior Clinical Director of a national company providing mental health services, I expanded access to patients across 10 States, positively impacting thousands of lives
My work on community mental health and health issues has been recognized by Robin Hood Foundation, the National Association of Social Work, Association of Asian American Pacific Community Health Organization (AAPCHO) and by the Susan G. Komen Foundation .
I founded Alcyon Psychotherapy and Coaching to focus on personalized mental health care, customized for each patient’s experiences, needs and personal goals. I am fluent in both Cantonese and English, and welcome patients of diverse backgrounds and experiences. Let’s see what Alcyon can do for you!
A Virtual “Safe Space”
All your appointments will take place online in the privacy and comfort of your own home (or another location you choose). With the virtual safe space on the secure platform, you can talk, rest, and heal as you meet with a clinician. Your privacy is assured.
Online and In-person Care
We offer teletherapy for NY and NJ residents. In-person service will be available soon.
“Adopted into an Asian culture where saving face was important, I learned to hide and ignore my problems. I grew up feeling isolated, unwanted and unloved. As an adult, I was diagnosed with severe chronic illness. Having unbearable pain on a daily basis I fell into a deep depression and was in a very dark emotional place. My sessions with my therapist, Manna Chan were life changing. She made therapy a warm, nurturing and enjoyable experience. Not only did she transform my life, she may have saved my life.”
