Life can be challenging for all of us at times. I’m here to witness your pain, and together, we will find a path forward. I believe successful therapy starts with a warm, caring, open and authentic relationship. I provide client-centred, flexible and collaborative therapy tailored to your goals and needs. I pay special attention to the broader contexts your life story situates in, including your family relationships, social circles, culture, religion, the larger society and beyond. I focus on your strengths and values as sources of healing, and together, we will navigate with mindfulness and compassion.
I am experienced in dealing with anxiety, depression, identity development, life transitions, self-esteem issues, relationship difficulties, work-related stress, trauma, grief, coping with illness and personal growth topics. I specialize in working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, such as immigrants. I offer therapy in English and Mandarin.
I have extensive training and draw from a wide range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Whether you want to heal from the past, have a better relationship with yourself and others in the present, or find meaning and direction for your future, I am here to accompany you throughout the challenging journey towards a fulfilling, balanced and happy life.
