English
| 中文 | 廣東話 I am a qualified Psychodynamic counsellor. My training and personal experience have led me to believe people are connected with and influenced by society, cultures, and so on. By forming a safe and trusting relationship in therapy, we can see how past and existing connections unknowingly impact you and gain a deeper insight into your problems and a greater awareness of your own self and your way of relating. Discovering self can be scary and I strive to follow you at your own pace. Being a queer woman and a therapist with an ethnic minority background have deepened my understanding of isolation and marginalisation.
Thus I value, embrace and learn from my work with people from different backgrounds, and I am committed to working with difference and diversity within an ethos of anti-discriminatory practice, based on awareness of my own ethnicity and background and oppression. I have an LGBTQIA+ & neurodiversity affirmative approach to therapy.
I understand it is not easy to choose a therapist. Thus I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation and the first session at a reduced rate where you can find out more about how we might work together. Concessions offered for students, low-income and NHS workers. For more information, please visit baoyioucounselling.com.
