After years of experience in a managerial role providing investor and media relations to publicly traded companies on the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ, she entered the mental health field.

After returning to school, she worked at various levels of care in the mental health field, including inpatient, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and community care.
A Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of Arizona, Li joined the team at Meadows Outpatient Center-Scottsdale in December 2017. She has worked as a primary therapist, trauma therapist, and clinical director before stepping into her current role as director.
Li’s passion for professional and personal growth leads her to seek extensive, ongoing training to provide the best in evidence-based patient care. This includes everything from EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and Internal Family Systems to Post-Induction Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

Our Partial Hospitalization program (PHP)
A partial hospitalization level of care is ideal for those who require stabilization and a safe space before transitioning to an intensive outpatient program (IOP). Average length of stay in our PHP spans four weeks, with an option to extend if deemed clinically appropriate. Program hours are increased at this level of care to allow for a focus on regulation in preparation to step down to our IOP. While programming is tailored to the individual’s needs, those in the partial hospitalization program routinely have 1-2 individual sessions each week, weekly psychiatry sessions, weekly family recovery virtual sessions, and neurofeedback sessions as needed.
PHP Level of Care Includes:
- 4-week length of stay (with option to extend)
- Programming 5 days per week, 5-6 hours per day
- Focus on stabilization, safety, and regulation
- Case management
- Preparation for IOP level of care
