You might be going through a big change—moving to a new country, starting over, grieving a loss, or questioning who you are. Maybe past trauma is surfacing, and you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained. Deep down, you’re searching for relief, clarity, and a way to move forward with more confidence and peace. My ideal client is someone who’s been strong for too long and is ready to feel safe, seen, and supported. If you’re looking for someone who gets the weight of transition and trauma, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to carry it alone.
I help people who are carrying emotional pain through life changes or past trauma. Using EMDR, CBT, and narrative therapy, I tailor each session to your pace and needs. I offer a warm, culturally attuned space - in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin - where you can feel grounded, rebuild trust in yourself, and move toward healing with clarity and purpose
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to begin, you’re not alone. Healing takes time, and it’s okay to move at the pace that feels right for you. I’m here to offer steady support, compassion, and a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out. When you're ready, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
