My expertise is in working with difficulties related to relational dynamics, especially those found in Asian/ Asian North American contexts and families.
I primarily work within a psychodynamic psychotherapy framework. This means we will talk about whatever you wish, but I am always interested in your relational and emotional being as these are keys to your healing. I'm also interested in helping people untangle and develop new perspectives to their past, current, and future faith expressions.

Welcome! My name is Lilian and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with a Master of Counselling Psychology (MCP). As long as I can remember, I have felt drawn to supporting others. As a first-generation immigrant from China, I often struggled with navigating cultural stigma towards mental health, while also finding language and compassion for my experiences. I’m also deeply familiar with the challenges of navigating personal identity, relationships, and values in today’s complex landscape of sociopolitical, cultural, and religious structures. I truly believe that with the right fit counselling can be incredibly healing.

Are you distressed by intense emotions, numbness, flashbacks or unwanted memories? Are you looking for a trauma therapist who is grounded in cultural sensitivity? Cultural factors can affect how you experience trauma and your subsequent traumatic stress reactions. As a holistic therapist, I bring a person's mind, body and spirit into the work that I do. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as EMDR, EFT and IFS, I love to help clients heal from trauma, attachment wounds, relationship problems and other problematic issues that have led to symptoms of anxiety, depression, spiralling thoughts and physical pain and tension.

You may be someone who appears capable and put-together, yet feels internally stretched or disconnected. Perhaps you’re navigating demanding work, complex relationships, caregiving roles, or the after-effects of difficult experiences. You might feel overwhelmed, emotionally distant, or unsure why things feel harder than they “should.” You’re thoughtful and reflective, wanting to understand yourself more deeply, ease persistent stress, and relate to others, and to your life - with greater clarity, steadiness, and meaning.

Sometimes, we all need someone to talk to. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, unsure of who you are, or struggling to manage the weight of life’s pressures, it can be challenging to move forward on your own. If past pain still lingers and quietly affects your daily life, it may be time to seek support, and you don’t have to face it alone.

You may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism, heavy cultural or family expectations (especially in Asian households), or the quiet exhaustion of keeping everything together while feeling stuck inside.
I offer therapy tailored to adults and professionals navigating self-worth, perfectionism, and interpersonal challenges. I also support individuals working through complex Asian family dynamics and cultural expectations. Using approaches such as IFS, EMDR, DBT, and attachment-based therapy, I tailor sessions to support meaningful and lasting change.
