Let's find the right next step
This isn't a booking page. Depending on what you need, here are the two best ways to reach the right place.
Interested in therapy?
I see clients at Ellie Mental Health in Monrovia, California. Their team handles all scheduling, insurance, and intake — reach out and let them know you'd like to work with Joy Bao.
Scheduling, insurance, and intake are all handled by Ellie Mental Health.
Non-clinical inquiries only
For speaking, writing, or professional connections. Please do not share clinical or personal health details here — for therapy, use the Ellie Mental Health link.
In an emergency
If you or someone you know is in crisis or thinking about suicide, call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (dial 988) at any time. If there is immediate danger, call 911.
