I am Dr. Houyuan Luo. I am a registered Counselling/Clinical Psychologist and an experienced CBT & ACT therapist in Toronto, Ontario. Thanks for reading my profile and congratulations on considering the journey of healing and living a meaningful life! As human beings, we all feel vulnerable and struggle with things at times. Nobody is swimming their way through life smoothly and without bumps. As a psychologist, I am your co-traveller. About me: I earned a Ph.D. in Counselling Psychology from the University of Alberta. I aspire to provide high-quality psychological services. More about me on www.drhouyuan.com.
I work primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approaches. I am also a certified CBT therapist by the Canadian Association of CBT. I value empathy, compassion, and understanding in clinical work. Also, I routinely seek feedback from clients to make sure my work meets clients’ needs.
I have received solid training in providing psychological assessment and psychotherapy to adults with various concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, relationship issues, stress management, anger management, self-criticism, psychosis and medical concerns.
