Hi, I’m Brendan Chang (he/him), the therapist behind Beyond Change Therapy.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel fully seen, affirmed, and celebrated for who you are. I am especially committed to supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and couples as they navigate life’s challenges with compassion, authenticity, and empowerment.

My approach is grounded in narrative therapy and mindfulness practices. Narrative therapy helps us examine and reshape the stories that have shaped your identity and experiences, while mindfulness builds presence, awareness, and resilience. Together, these practices create a path not just through change, but beyond it—toward transformation, acceptance, and deeper connection.

I know starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if past experiences left you feeling unseen or misunderstood. My goal is to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can share openly, explore deeply, and take meaningful steps toward living the life you want.
