In this fast-paced, demanding, and constantly changing world, the majority of us are experiencing different levels of stress in our daily lives. Most of our stresses are created by the pulling between two opposite ends. One end is need, responsibility, change, family, work, relationships etc. The other end is want, calm, fun, consistency etc. My work is focused on how to walk in the middle of these two ends and still have a life full of meaning. My practice is providing a safe and supportive environment, focusing on the here and now and strengthening self-awareness.

I understand there are a lot of psychological and interpersonal needs of the people living in the Great Toronto Area, including Markham, Richmond Hill and others. I especially want to serve the population speaking Mandarin and Cantonese. Their tradition is keeping every conflict and stress inside so that they may miss the early chance to receive professional help for their mental health and their strong families. They may experience more pain, stress, and struggle before they seek for psychological counselling and psychotherapy. I understand their culture well and can provide better services to reach a healthier person, couple and family.
