Cantonese Therapists in Perth, ON

I'm a trauma-informed therapist using a relational approach to help client transform unhelpful patterns, live more freely and fully, find lasting joy, and build satisfying relationships. In you I see a unique and complex person with your individualised temperaments, feelings, relational patterns, and unmet needs. In therapy, we dissect your distress from a compassionate angle and fathom how the past is affecting our present difficulties. Positive changes follow as we get to express what was repressed, clear blockages, hence expand the freedom to make self-directed choices in life. I'm trilingual and speak English/Cantonese/Mandarin.

We all go through challenges in our lives, but it is not talking about it that makes it so much harder. Life is like a wave; we cannot change how it breaks but how we ride it. I use a client-centred, multicultural discipline and collaborative approach (EMDR, CBT) to help individuals and couples grow and heal. I sincerely believe in the uniqueness, courage, and ability to change and grow in each individual. I believe in empowering you with the tools to find relief, clarity, and emotional growth. I believe in helping couples recognize, manage and reconcile issues that cause stress and/or disconnection in their relationship.

Navigating the walk of life can be isolating and challenging for many of us at times but it does not have to be this way. As a therapist, my passion lies in creating a safe and empathetic space to help clients uncover what is contributing to their struggles. I strongly believe people have the resiliency to overcome challenges. Thus, my aim in therapy is to collaborate with clients to cultivate inner strength and positive growth to live a more enjoyable and meaningful life.

The stories that we hold about ourselves and others, and the stories the world says about us, all shape who we are and what we do. I focus on helping clients make sense of these stories, which is informed by narrative and social justice principles, and my own lived experience as a racialized queer first-generation immigrant. Some common clinical issues I treat include anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, identity exploration, and stress management. I also specialize in supporting individuals with sexuality and gender identity concerns and BIPOC mental health.
