Accepting NEW patients for low-cost therapy in English and Mandarin. As an ethnic minority female therapist, I bring both personal and professional awareness to the ways culture, identity, and lived experiences shape who we are. I value and respect diversity, and I aim to meet you with cultural sensitivity and openness, whether you’re navigating stress, relationship challenges, health concerns, or questions of identity and belonging. My sessions are tailored to your unique needs and goals, helping you uncover patterns, build coping strategies, and move toward meaningful change.
Previous working experience in different sectors helps me to understand people's stress in the career and self-development. Also, I have spent the last few years working as a counsellor in China, assisting clients coping with depression, anxiety, trauma, OCD, and chronic diseases, helping them navigate both the physical and emotional impact of illnesses.
I have a deep appreciation for the connection between body and mind, and I support clients in multiple ways to build resilience and self-compassion when facing ongoing health challenges. I focus on getting to know you as a whole person—not just the difficulties you’re facing. I will create a safe place and look forward to getting to know you better.
