Life’s challenges can often feel overwhelming, and navigating them alone can be difficult. Taking the first step to seek support is one of the hardest parts of the journey, and I deeply acknowledge the courage it takes to reach out. I’m here to provide a compassionate and welcoming space where you can explore your emotions, process past experiences, and discover meaningful ways to move forward.
The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in psychotherapy. Finding the right therapist is a deeply personal decision, and at its core, it comes down to whether you feel safe, understood, and able to build trust.

I am a registered psychotherapist with experience working with adults (25+) coping a wide variety of issues, including grief, trauma, difficult relationships, anxiety and loneliness.

I view issues and challenges brought to therapy through a holistic lens and believe that body, mind and spirit are all equally important for optimal well-being.

I know what it’s like to feel lost, overwhelmed, or disconnected from oneself. That personal journey led me to discover ways to reconnect with my truer, more contented self. Counselling became a natural extension of that learning. I now work with clients who want to understand themselves more deeply and feel more at home in their own lives with increased authenticity and peace. I use a gentle, compassionate approach towards enhanced self-awareness and understanding. Whether you're facing anxiety, stress, life transitions, or just a sense that something’s not quite right — I offer a calm, supportive space to come home to yourself.

My name is Gorgan Ng and I've been working with teenagers or young adults who identify as part of the geek culture or have an interest in gaming, anime, or superheroes. They may be struggling with issues such as wanting change in life, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, difficulty fitting in, or a sense of isolation. They need a safe and understanding space where they can freely express their interests and experiences without judgment. Their goal is to integrate the skills and insights they have gained from their geeky hobbies into their daily lives, improving their self-confidence, social connections, and overall well-being.
