Hi there! I’m Marcus, a gay second-generation Chinese settler. As a student therapist under clinical supervision, I offer low-cost counselling starting at $30 a session.
My commitment to this work emerged from seeing how spiritual and cultural expectations can collide with queerness, how disconnection from community can affect one’s sense of self and belonging, and how identity, and systems of power shape our sense of self.
In my seven years of non-profit work, I’ve provided peer support to youth who survived childhood trauma, journeyed with folks who have ADHD, and offered care to low-income families.

Have you ever wondered: How much of my problem is me generated and how much is other people or circumstances? You know you are responsible for making changes in your life and yet things happen that make that change seemingly impossible. How can I change my private self and how I relate outwardly? Can I move from victim to survivor, from bully to challenger from rescuer to supporter even when the world and those around me don't cooperate? It's a question worth exploring. Spoiler Alert! It's very possible!

My ideal clients are adults and teens carrying more than they can hold alone — quietly struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or feeling unheard in their relationships. They may appear high-functioning while hurting inside. Reaching out takes courage, and I don't take that lightly. Drawing on CBT, EMDR, DBT, and IFS, I work at a pace that feels safe and trauma-informed. Together we explore patterns, build awareness, and develop tools that fit your real life. You are not broken you are ready to heal.

In addition to individual counselling, I provide counselling groups (parenting, CBT groups, wellness, social skills development) and workshops (FASD, Mental Health Awareness, Healthy Sleep Habits, and others available upon request).
It is perfectly normal to hit speed bumps or even complete road blocks in our lives. Whether big or small, counselling can help individuals feel connected and supported while they are experiencing and resolving challenges. In my practice, I focus on short-term goals such as immediate symptom relief, and long-term goals that explore more enduring patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting that often keep us stuck in our current challenges.

I strongly believe that we all have the capacity to heal and to move towards our preferred future. We often can't do this alone. Collaborating with you and attuning my practice to ways that work best for you, I offer a safe space for reflection and insight building. I have worked with a broad range of people over the years and bring with me a commitment to anti-oppressive practice and attention to the contexts that contribute to suffering and to healing. We are living in a time of immense stress and increased isolation and this takes a toll. Reaching out for support is an important act of wellness and I welcome your enquiry.
