oo EMDR-trained therapist, ICBC coverage, Mandarin & Cantonese counselling oo You may be carrying silent wounds from past trauma, grief, or growing up in a high-pressure or cross-cultural environment. I specialize in helping teens, adults, and seniors from immigrant, gender expansive, neurodiverse, Asian, and multilingual backgrounds navigate trauma, burnout, emotional overwhelm, relationship issues, neurodivergent experiences (ADHD, autism, high sensitivity), and life transitions. I offer a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive space where you can make sense of your experiences and reconnect with your sense of self-worth.
I have worked at psychiatric, medical, and community settings, and was trained in evidence-based approaches, including EMDR (EMDRIA-approved training), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I customise my approach to meet each client’s unique needs and goals at their own pace.
I still remind myself every day how lucky I am to have the opportunity to help people feel seen and heard through life’s ups and downs. If you ever feel the need for support or have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. You don't have to handle this all alone!
