Having practiced as a Clinical Psychologist overseas for 20 years, I am very familiar with all kinds of conditions. If you are having relationship with your spouse or others, I can help. You might be stressed out trying to parent your children, whatever age they maybe and esp for offsprings who have ADHD, Autism or learning problems, I love to help. Or you maybe depressed, anxious, wanting to work out your inner issues so that you can be a happy person, I am here to give you a hand. Or you might have a lot of pain/stress in your life, with various kinds of addictions not knowing what to do, I am here to help you find your way out.
As an overseas Psychologist who has worked in the prisons and social welfare department in Hong Kong, I can understand teens and children very well. Having studied Educational and Clinical Psychology, I understand parenting discipline and learning issues, and have a passion for autism and ADHD. Why not call for a free initial consultation for your situation?
I am very passionate, responsible and professional in my work. I have a sincere attitude, like to help people and want them to live the best life they can, and doing it within the shortest time frame possible. You may not have a good experience in the past with psychological service, I encourage you to give it a try, and price should never be an issue here.
