Are anxiety, depression, or recurring relationship, behavioural patterns keeping you stuck? These struggles often stem from early relational wounds and complex trauma, shaping people-pleasing, self-criticism, perfectionism, or emotional disconnection. I specialise in culturally adaptive Schema Therapy, integrating EMDR and trauma & attachment informed, relational work to support lasting change. l attend to patterns as they unfold in therapy. I also offer supervision, helping therapists refine advanced attunement, subtle skills, navigate impasses, work skilfully with transference, and deepen professional and personal development.
With expertise in trauma, personality disorders, and cases unresponsive to prior therapy, I offer culturally adaptive, Schema-focused treatment attuned to both Asian and Western contexts. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space grounded in deep emotional attunement and relational understanding, tailored to your unique history and needs.
Within you lies the capacity to heal and grow. If you feel trapped by unresolved trauma or discouraged by therapies that haven’t worked, you’re not alone. Let's understand the patterns, heal emotional wounds, and create meaningful, lasting change. Therapists seeking culturally responsive Schema Therapy supervision are warmly welcome. Let's advance together!
