I am Dr. Houyuan Luo. I am a registered Counselling/Clinical/Health 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 mindpeace.ca/teams/
My approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Emotion-focused Therapy (EFT). 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, bipolar, excessive emotions or emotional flatness, relationship issues, stress management, anger management, self-criticism, psychosis and psychological intervention of physical illnesses (e.g., chronic pain).

The ultimate goal of my therapy is to help clients live fulfilling lives. However, three major factors got in the way: self-criticism (i.e., being too hard on ourselves), emotional imbalance (i.e., being too emotional or too rational), and ineffective behaviours (e.g., procrastination, and low problem-solving skills). Those are the underlying factors of disorders like depression and anxiety.
