Hi, I'm Hao, a bilingual (English/Chinese) therapist and member of the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ community. If you've turned to ChatGPT for clarity while struggling in silence, you're not alone. For many people dealing with anxiety, depression, behaviour, self-esteem issues, or relationship struggles, unmet needs and long-held beliefs can keep them feeling stuck. You may spend a lot of time trying to understand yourself, replaying conversations, preparing for every outcome, or searching for the "right" answer, yet still find yourself questioning whether you're doing enough and feeling exhausted by the pressure to get things right.

Most of my clients come to me after years of being bounced around — poked, prodded, dismissed, told their symptoms are stress or in their head. They live with chronic pain, chronic illness, ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, Long COVID, POTS, or medical trauma, and they're done pushing through flares and pretending to be fine. What they want is someone who actually gets it. I do — I live in a chronic-illness body myself. We work on nervous system regulation, pacing, and everything you're carrying alongside the illness, using Pain Reprocessing Therapy, SSP, CBT, DBT, and somatic work. Online across BC, AB, MB, SK, NL, YT, NT, and NU.

Our past experiences impact us in ways we may not even realize. Our nervous system jumps in to protect us in ways that it has helped us survive in the past (this could look like feeling foggy, anxious, depressed or numb). This often prevents us from operating how we wish to. Working to reconnect the body with the mind to our present, adult self can help resolve this disconnection. I believe that we all deserve to experience connection, empathy, attunement and safety and that this is often the missing piece.

Calling creative, sensitive over-thinkers who experience big feelings in relationships. The ruminating worries, self-doubt, and negative body image spin in your head since childhood (which is a story in itself!). On a logical level, you've understood your story, but something is still missing. You are still anxious, insecure, easily overwhelmed, and find it hard to manage your feelings. In moments of stillness, you look for ways to numb out the shadows of the past. As if parts of you were still stuck back there, lost in the memories. You miss connecting to imagination, creativity, curiosity, and light. Where did it go?

Imagine you’re sitting across from each other again…
Not as enemies. Not as strangers.
Just… you two.
Imagine your hands don’t pull away this time.
Imagine your eyes meet—and don’t look down.
Imagine the words you never said…
finally finding their way out.
Imagine the silence isn’t heavy—
it’s safe.
Imagine the anger softens…
and underneath it, something honest is still there.
Imagine a kind of love that still has dignity—
respect, even in the pain.
Maybe nothing is the same as before.
But maybe… something real is still possible.
You don’t have to imagine it alone.

Is change possible? Can you feel better? Is healing real or just hyped-up? I remember asking the same questions. Let's talk. Let's find out what's showing up in your relationships, and/or between you and what you want. It's a brave thing to look change in the face and not "know" the mental roadmap. But I can help with this part.
We can do it together. You'll drive and I'll use my training to help you discover more about why you 'always' drive to the same place, or why you have stopped driving altogether. I hold the trust that you have what it takes to find more open roads! (now let me stop with this metaphor for now!)

“The two most important days in your life are the day you were born and the day you figure out why.” Mark Twain Therapy isn’t about labels or being told what to do. It’s about motivation for change and cultivating change in your life. Self awareness is essential for change as Socrates said with his “Know Thyself” quote. From self-awareness comes the awareness of choice. From the awareness of choice comes the all-important awareness of responsibility. It’s your life and, hence, your responsibility. I strive to help you in this process by getting to know you, your goals, challenges and the way you make sense of your life.

You can become free from finding yourself in the same emotional patterns.
You may feel anxious much of the time, find it difficult to control anger, struggle with sexual concerns, or suffer from the effects of concussion or brain injury. I specialize in helping people understand why these patterns persist and how lasting change becomes possible. Together, we'll identify what keeps you stuck so you can respond differently instead of repeating the same cycles.
As you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, anxiety becomes less overwhelming, your relationships more meaningful, and difficult emotions easier to navigate.

You’re caught in cycles that feel familiar but draining—overthinking, shutting down, or grappling with emotions that hit hard and fast. You strive for high standards, yet beneath it all, anxiety, self-doubt, or the weight of past trauma make it tough to feel in control. You’re not broken—you’re resilient, but you’re tired of just surviving. You’re ready to understand what drives these patterns and gain tools to live with confidence and connection.
