Do your feelings overwhelm you? Is it hard to stay in control? Are you unkind to yourself? I understand how hard it is to ask for help.
Untangling a lifetime of feelings and thoughts can be daunting, but with the right support you can identify those limiting patterns and change the beliefs, feelings, and responses holding you back from the life you want and the person you want to be.
Choice comes from understanding yourself, then making the right changes. I understand how hard it can be to do that on your own. I will be with you on that journey, supporting and empowering you to move from self-awareness to real, lasting change

You may feel stuck, overwhelmed or caught in patterns that no longer seem to make sense. Perhaps you're constantly overthinking, struggling with anxiety, finding relationships difficult, coping with grief or facing a significant life transition. You may even know what you want to change but have no idea where to begin.
I work with adults, including university and international students, who are looking for more than symptom relief. We will explore how your thoughts, emotions, behaviours and relationships connect, helping you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and create meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.

I'm an integrative, relational therapist who works with individuals navigating life transitions, relationship patterns, and the lingering impact of childhood and family dynamics. Many of my clients look like they "have it together" on the outside — they're reponsible, capable, and independent. But inside, they feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or exhausted from holding everything together for everyone else.
Therapy with me offers a space where you don't need to be the "strong" one. A space where you can slow down, make sense of what's going underneath, and be met with attunement, warmth, and genuine care.

I qualified as a Clinical Psychologist in 2012 and have extensive experience of working with males and females across the entire life span cycle (teenagers to older adults) treating a variety of mental health difficulties, ranging from common mental health problems (depression, anxiety disorders) to severe and enduring mental health difficulties (psychosis, personality disorders).

I work with clients from multicultural context and offer online therapy sessions in both Chinese and English in the UK and around the world.
Hello and welcome — I'm glad you're here.
Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and I want to honour the courage it takes for you to take this first step. Many of my clients come to me when they feel stuck — in anxiety, self-doubt, relationship patterns, loneliness, or the pressure to “hold everything together.” You might notice repeating cycles you don’t know how to break, or feel disconnected from yourself and unsure of what you really want. In our sessions, we slow down together, explore what’s happening beneath the surface, and create space for clarity, strength, and new possibilities to emerge.

Do you feel anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or torn between different cultural or family expectations?
Many women I work with feel stuck carrying invisible responsibilities, managing anxiety, navigating family conflict, or living with the impact of intergenerational trauma while trying to “hold everything together’’.
I have particular experience supporting women from diverse cultural backgrounds, especially those who feel caught between two worlds. Therapy with me offers a compassionate, culturally sensitive space to explore how past experiences continue to shape your present, and to build self-trust and emotional balance.

You might look like you’re coping on the outside, while inside you feel anxious, low, overwhelmed or stuck. Maybe you’re battling shame and self‑criticism, masking neurodivergence, or feeling caught between cultures, family expectations or ideas about masculinity. You may not have the words for what’s wrong, but you know something needs to change. I work with adults who are tired of managing alone and want a steady, non‑judgemental space to understand themselves and move towards a life that feels more authentic and sustainable.

If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, disconnection, or feeling unheard, you’re not alone. Many individuals face challenges navigating life’s transitions: whether it's stepping into adulthood, choosing a career path, or forming relationships. These struggles often stem from a deeper sense of not being able to speak up or express ourselves fully. The voice that connects us to others, that allows us to call out for help or form meaningful bonds, can feel lost in moments of isolation, uncertainty, or self-doubt. If you feel silenced or struggle to express yourself, it can lead to withdraw, disconnect, or let fear take over.

Overwhelmed. Exhausted. Like your mind won’t quiet down, or like you’re masking just to get through the day. Maybe past experiences still show up in ways you didn’t expect. Maybe you’ve always felt a little different from everyone else, and you’re tired of pretending otherwise. Or maybe it’s your relationships that feel harder than they should like you’re not being fully seen, you simply don’t feel heard.
If any of this feels familiar, I can help.

Life can feel heavy sometimes, and it’s not always easy to carry everything on your own. Counselling gives you a safe and gentle space where you can let some of that weight down. This is your time — a place where you can talk openly, be truly heard, and know that you won’t be judged.
I believe each of us is unique. We all experience challenges differently, and there isn’t one “right way” to cope. That’s why I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach — I work with you, at your pace, in a way that feels supportive and comfortable for you.

Originally from Hong Kong, I am a registered counsellor, EMDR Certified Therapist and an Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS) candidate based in Vancouver, Canada. I provide therapy and clinical supervision/consultation in English, Cantonese and Mandarin. My personal experiences have led me to explore the complex impacts of trauma, including its connection to anxiety, depression and somatic symptoms. I’ve dedicated myself to studying how the brain, body and nervous system respond to trauma, and how it can lead to changes that affect physical health, behaviour, social patterns and our ability to cope with stress.

You’re someone others depend on, the one who keeps things moving, holds things together, and rarely lets things drop.
From the outside, you seem capable and in control. But internally, it can feel heavier than it looks. You might find yourself overthinking, stretched, or quietly carrying more than anyone realises.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious or stuck in patterns that you don’t understand, counselling can help you make sense of what’s happening and begin to move you forward. You may be struggling with your relationships, self-esteem, difficult family experiences, trauma or a sense that you’re never quite good enough. Together, we can explore where these patterns come from and what you need to feel more secure, confident and in control of your life.

What can an Asian therapist help with?
An Asian therapist can help with the same concerns as any other therapist, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, grief, and major life transitions. How an Asian therapist can make the experience feel different, however, is the possibility of shared cultural understanding. If you identify with a background such as Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, working with a therapist who shares or understands aspects of your culture may help you feel more comfortable opening up on such topics.
What role can language play in therapy?
Language can play an important role in therapy because people often express emotions, family dynamics, and personal experiences differently depending on the language they are speaking. For some individuals, working with a therapist who speaks their native language, whether it be Hindi, Punjabi, Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, Korean, or another language, may help sessions feel more natural and emotionally connected. Even if you are fluent in English, certain thoughts or feelings may still feel easier to communicate in your native language.
How can an Asian therapist support couples counselling or family therapy?
Cultural background can play an important role in couples counselling and family therapy, particularly when family expectations, communication styles, generational differences, or cultural traditions are influencing the relationship. An Asian therapist may help partners and family members navigate these topics with more cultural understanding and less need to explain the context behind them. For multicultural or multilingual families, a Asian therapist who is bilingual may also help ensure that each person feels heard and understood during sessions.
How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience with Asian clients?
If cultural background is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask prospective therapists whether they have experience working with clients who share your cultural background or speak your preferred language. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might also ask whether they have worked with clients experiencing concerns related to identity, intergenerational conflict, family expectations, or cultural stigma around mental health.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Asian therapists?
The directory of Asian therapists includes professionals who have shared their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason; also, when the number of therapists identified as Asian is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
