English
| Tiếng Việt | 中文 | 廣東話 Feeling depressed and worried most of the time, stressed out, angry, struggling with family relationships, and having distressing memories. Don't let these problems stop you from living a meaningful life. You are NOT alone and I am here to SUPPORT you.
I welcome you to the journey of personal healing and self-discovery. Therapy sessions are tailored to fit your unique values and goals with my warm and empowering style. Hence, you will learn to identify your inner struggles, nurture your values, develop productive coping strategies, find your own strengths, foster your personal growth, and live a life that is worth living.
I am trained in providing trauma-informed-care and evidenced-based practices (EMDR, CBT, CPT, Brainspotting, and EFFT) to re-process and desensitize the impact of trauma; thus, enhancing relationships with loved ones and with yourself. I take a strength-based, person-centered, and holistic-focused approach to provide a safe space for you to be who you are.
I am passionate in helping BIPOC and immigrants.
This practice supports diversity and inclusion. All is Welcome.
The session can also be done in Cantonese, Mandarin, and Vietnamese.
