Dr Ching is a UK trained Clinical Psychologist, experienced in anxiety, depression, stress/burnout, self-esteem, childhood or event-specific trauma, relationships, and life adjustments (e.g. relocation, chronic physical health, third culture kids). She offers a gentle, comfortable, and safe approach to hearing and understanding your experiences. There is nothing too silly or wrong to talk about. The sessions will be guided by what you feel is important and meaningful to you.
You may think "Iam not good enough", "Am I doing it right?", "Why is this happening again", "I don't think I can cope", "Who am I?". You may feel stuck in repeated patterns of thoughts, behaviours and/or relationships. Dr Ching's sessions can offer a space to understand and slowly untangle these cycles, towards a life aligned with your core values and goals.
Each individual has a unique story which means that the bright spots or catalyst to change or movement in their life are also unique. Drawing on various psychological schools of thoughts, she adopts an integrative approach tailored to individual needs. Specific approaches Dr Ching adopts are not limited to mindfulness, CBT, DBT, ACT, NET, CFT.

I cover support for a broad range of difficulties but specialises in trauma/PTSD, self-esteem and life transitions. During our initial sessions, we will focus on building a formulation or, in other words, an understanding, of how the difficulties developed. Thereafter, we will look at how to use this understanding to help us in the 'here and now' to improve symptoms and quality of life.
