About

Do you feel trapped? Are life stressors overwhelming you? Are relationship issues preventing you from functioning at your best? At Sunlight Counseling Center, we are committed to supporting your emotional well-being and personal growth. We understand that life is full of challenges, and sometimes, we need to pause and reflect on what truly matters. Our goal is to provide you with a warm, caring, and safe space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, relax, and begin the healing journey. Counseling is provided by Jesse Ngu, PsyD, LCSW, who brings over a decade of experience in the mental health field. Jesse has worked with diverse populations and a wide range of mental health conditions. She also provided psychotherapy and psychological assessments in psychological assessments in various forensic settings. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling with family and friends, taking time to reflect and embrace the beauty of life. I am deeply grateful for my family and my faith, which have provided me with the strength and courage to pursue my passion—helping others navigate through life’s challenges. Credentials & Experience: Currently I am undergoing for the doctoral licensure examination in the State of California.
