Hi, I am Hao, a culturally grounded therapist supporting all, with a focus on marginalized groups, e.g. BIPOC, LGBTQ+ clients. If you’ve turned to ChatGPT for clarity often while struggling in silence, you’re not alone. For many dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues, their unmet needs and learned beliefs can be central reasons they remain stuck. You might second-guess yourself, feel guilty for setting boundaries, or crave connection yet push people away. Patterns like avoidance, comparison trap, overthinking, and self-criticism quietly keep you trapped, leaving little space to care for yourself.
I help clients decode the messages behind thoughts and emotions through a mix of EFT, ACT, CBT, and DBT. You’ll be fully supported as you experience “ah-ha” moments. Some sessions may feel challenging as we meet hidden parts of yourself or revisit messy feelings and meaning, but in a safe, non-judgmental space. Often, these moments create real breakthroughs.
My life experience bridges Eastern and Western cultures, helping me deeply connect with clients facing racial identity struggles and those in intercultural relationships. LGBTQ folks, I see the stress linked to existing trends within our community and political climate shaped by government policies. I offer open-minded care that honours your unique story.

I approach therapy from a humanistic perspective, yet I'm a chameleon, flexibly integrating techniques from different modalities to support each client with their challenges. E.g. We will utilize EFT & ACT approaches (e.g. chair work, externalizing) to address complex trauma and deeper relational wounds while adopting CBT &DBT skills to regulate emotions and address unhelpful thoughts/behaviours.
