Lindy Yang
R. Ac, R. TCMP, RSSW
Lindy’s practice centers the mind–body connection and invites curiosity about how physical, mental, and emotional health concerns may be connected. She is especially interested in supporting people who feel stressed or anxious and are experiencing difficulties with sleep, low energy, digestion, or pain. Lindy helps people understand how emotions may be connected to their physical symptoms, and then offers acupuncture and herbal medicine treatments to support physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
Grounded in an anti-oppressive approach, Lindy’s practice also considers how a person’s life circumstances can influence their health. She offers a caring, calm space for people to explore the connections between their lived experiences and health concerns. Lindy also helps people build an understanding of what their body’s uncomfortable symptoms may be trying to communicate regarding what supports and lifestyle changes might be helpful for achieving their health goals.
Lindy also practices from a neurodiversity affirming framework to support highly sensitive people (HSPs) and adults with ADHD or level 1 autism. Acupuncture and herbal medicine can help with health concerns such as (but not limited to) anxiety, stress, sensory overwhelm, low energy, difficulty sleeping, digestive concerns, period pain, and physical tension/pain. Lindy recognizes that everyone experiences the world differently and deserves care that respects these differences. Stress, sensory experiences, and masking can all impact health, so Lindy aims to create a welcoming, sensory-friendly environment where people can feel comfortable being themselves.
Lindy is a registered Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner, registered Acupuncturist, and registered Social Service Worker. Her education includes a Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner diploma from Humber College, a Social Service Worker diploma from Mohawk College, and a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from the University of British Columbia.
