I believe counselling is a journey for people to heal from the trauma they experienced so that they are able to live freely. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe place for people and walk with them to help them deal with their hurt and pain. Thus they can resolve their emotional blockage and have both better intrapersonal and interpersonal relationships. I help clients express emotions, address past trauma, connect past experiences to current issues, identify root causes of problems, and facilitate positive changes for effective future problem-solving. I am fluent in speaking Cantonese, English and Mandarin.

Sometimes we’ve been wounded. We are bitter and end up in hard places. We are in relationships that have grown painful, disappointing, even hopeless. It seems there are insurmountable chasms, and we are stuck with nowhere to go. Sometimes the hard places consume all our joy, and we are simply numb. Our emotions have dried up, and we no longer feel. At other times, the hard places can trigger fear, desperation, or panic attacks.

Having a family member struggling with mental health issue has first inspired me to go into counselling. I have also been through counselling at different points in my life, which helps me gain a better understanding of the counselling process and its benefits as a client.

It is an honour and privilege to walk alongside people as they navigate times when they may feel pain, confusion, or stuckness. The values I bring into the counselling space are acceptance, an environment where safety can be felt, and collaborating with them to learn about how their distress is impacting them and working together with them in strengthening their sense of themselves and their relationships. In my work with my clients, I also value celebrating triumphs as they work towards being the person they want to be.

If you have been feeling distant from your partner or finding that your conflicts go around in circles, I am the right therapist for you. Regardless of the specific issue, I find that one thing can often be missing—a close connection, a secure attachment, or sometimes it’s that “spark” that brought them together initially. Through communication and other skills, I support couples in rebuilding that connection. Once this foundation is established, the couples often share that they feel softer and more endearing toward each other, naturally becoming more open to exploring new ways to solve the old issues.

Human beings, on the whole, are extraordinarily complex. I believe that we each carry within us depths that we do not necessarily draw on in our day-to-day movements, be it by choice, or by a certain unawareness – when what is needed to access our full capacities has not yet been discovered. When feeling stuck, it can be important to be reminded of our resilience and our capacity to change, to flow in the midst of flux.

Do you feel like your anxiety rules your mind and you have no control? You may constantly battle racing thoughts, struggling to focus, and feeling restless about various aspects of your life. While striving for excellence and witnessing others' success, you're often left feeling anxious, inadequate, and behind. Even when you perform well and receive praise, you still doubt your achievements, feeling unworthy or as though there's more you should be doing. It is incredibly challenging for you to communicate your feelings and needs to others because you feel guilty asking for help and fear you may burden others. But there's a way out.
