I believe that anyone can benefit from psychological support and coaching. You don’t need to be ‘disordered’ to see a psychologist. What you can expect when you work with me is that I consider the relationship between the mind, body and brain in my approach. I also strongly focus on the therapeutic relationship; you need to feel comfortable with your therapist in order to maximise your outcomes from the sessions. I can help with anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, self-confidence, ADHD and Autism. I work with adolescents, adults and couples. I also work through a cultural lens and understand the Asian immigrant experience.

Sometimes the hardest thing isn't the problem itself, it's finding somewhere safe to put it down for a moment. Whether you're navigating anxiety, battling perfectionism, or quietly wrestling with self-doubt, I offer a space that is genuinely free from judgement, where you can slow down, be honest, and start to understand yourself more clearly. I'm a clinical psychologist with a warm, integrative approach. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Instead, I work collaboratively with you, drawing on evidence-based frameworks while staying attuned to what you actually need in the room.

I enjoy helping clients who are experiencing life challenges and are stressed. It is rewarding to journey with clients as they take the initial step acknowledging they need help then be willing to look deeply within themselves as they learn ways to cope. My clients want to lead more satisfying and healthy lives, enjoy happier and more harmonious relationships (at home or work), and fulfil their potential. I help my clients achieve greater inner calm, resilience, health and wellbeing, and personal goals, so they enjoy their life, love and appreciate who they are, get off autopilot default mode, and be a positive force in the world.

Just as there are many reasons why an eating disorder manifests in your life, the way you recover will be just as unique.

Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, especially when you're carrying anxiety, sadness, relationship struggles, or a sense that something in your life isn’t quite working the way you hoped. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood and able to explore what’s really going on beneath the surface. Together we explore the root causes of challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD-related difficulties, relationship concerns, self-esteem struggles, identity, addictions, trauma, and emotional dysregulation. I also enthusiastically welcome conversations around life direction, purpose, and spirituality.

Sports Performance Therapists
How does sports psychology work?
Sports psychology helps athletes identify and overcome challenges, such as perfectionism or a fear of failure, and improve key mental skills, such as confidence or concentration. By applying principles and techniques from psychology, such as goal-setting, visualisation, positive self-talk, and emotion regulation, sports psychologists help athletes improve their performance on the field and their well-being overall.

How long does treatment for a sports-related problem take?
The duration of sports psychology treatment depends on the athlete’s individual challenges, goals, the complexity of the interventions used, and even on the length of the season. A performance anxiety issue may be treated with a short-term treatment, like Cognitive behavioural therapy, while issues such as depression, substance abuse, or severe anxiety may require longer-term treatments.

How effective is treatment for sports performance problems?
Sports psychology has been shown to improve performance and help athletes manage their emotions. Sports psychology can be effective in boosting performance, team dynamics, and injury rehabilitation. Over the past decade, nearly every professional sports team in every major sport has added a sports psychologist to its staff. Many colleges have done the same, and even some high school programs have done the same. Olympic hopefuls may consult with sports psychologists starting in elementary school.

What are the limitations of sports psychology?
Sports psychology may have several limitations. Every athlete is unique and may respond differently to sports psychology treatments. Therapy can help an athlete reach their potential; it can help athletes cope with injury and pain, but it cannot change the physical limitations that may be affecting an athlete’s performance.
