I work with people who are keen to find deep and meaningful healing. We work to transform relational trauma, marriage, depression, identity, and self-worth. When meeting with you, I look at the cultural context — not just ethnic, but also societal, religious, and family — and seek to understand how culture shapes your personal story. I then attend to how you hold yourself, your story, beliefs, and sufferings in your mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to help you to become who you are truly meant to be, to love and be loved, and restore your sense of self, sense of worth, freedom, fulfilment, and joy.

I offer a culturally sensitive space and sessions in English or Chinese.
You may appear to be coping on the outside, while inside feeling quite lost, empty, or disconnected. Others may not see it, but you might feel far away from yourself, unsure of who you are or what you truly want. Many people try to move away from this through achievement, relationships, or constant busyness — but sooner or later, something brings them back to a deeper question of themselves.
In therapy, we begin to slow things down and make space for what is there. It becomes a place where you can start to understand your inner world, and gently find your way back towards yourself.

You may feel overwhelmed by your emotions or unsure how to make sense of them. I work with adults who want to better understand their inner world in a way that feels compassionate and non-judging. Rather than seeing your struggles as something “wrong” with you, I view your thoughts, emotions, and patterns as meaningful responses shaped by your experiences, ones that made sense at the time, even if they no longer serve you now.

One of the barriers to self-care is allowing yourself to go into the depths of your experiences. Often, we are challenged to explore and understand this profound chasm, to touch what is held there, to hear its messages, and to connect with compassion to the raw emotions that have been lying dormant for years or just surfaced. By peering into the abyss, we can gain deeper understanding of ourselves and insight into the meaning of our lives; transforming and opening up possibilities the future could hold for us.

FAQ - Asian Counselling
What can an Asian therapist help with?
An Asian therapist can help with the same concerns as any other therapist, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, grief, and major life transitions. How an Asian therapist can make the experience feel different, however, is the possibility of shared cultural understanding. If you identify with a background such as Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Korean, Japanese, or Vietnamese, working with a therapist who shares or understands aspects of your culture may help you feel more comfortable opening up on such topics.
What role can language play in therapy?
Language can play an important role in therapy because people often express emotions, family dynamics, and personal experiences differently depending on the language they are speaking. For some individuals, working with a therapist who speaks their native language, whether it be Mandarin, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese, or another language, may help sessions feel more natural and emotionally connected. Even if you are fluent in English, certain thoughts or feelings may still feel easier to communicate in your native language.
How can an Asian therapist support couples counselling or family therapy?
Cultural background can play an important role in couples counselling and family therapy, particularly when family expectations, communication styles, generational differences, or cultural traditions are influencing the relationship. An Asian therapist may help partners and family members navigate these topics with more cultural understanding and less need to explain the context behind them. For multicultural or multilingual families, an Asian therapist who is bilingual may also help ensure that each person feels heard and understood during sessions.
How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience with Asian clients?
If cultural background is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask prospective therapists whether they have experience working with clients who share your cultural background or speak your preferred language. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might also ask whether they have worked with clients experiencing concerns related to identity, intergenerational conflict, family expectations, or cultural stigma around mental health.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Asian therapists?
The directory of Asian therapists includes professionals who have shared their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason; also, when the number of therapists identified as Asian is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
