應對生活變遷好多時候令人感到壓力重重，尤其係當社會、家庭和個人期望壓係你身上嘅時候。作為一位出生於香港嘅過來人，我明白身在異地嘅感受。我地都渴望過上充實的生活，再次感到快樂，但我地經常被期望要感恩、唔好再抱怨，唔好再發放負能量。好多人都面臨呢啲挑戰嘅時候，都認為自己係一個人。身在美國，學習一種新嘅文化，講一種唔同嘅語言，同時被期望取得成功係唔容易，透過專業心理治師嘅支持係好重要。

Have you wondered why you keep making the same decisions even though they do not serve you? Have you wondered if you continue making the same choices and go with this trend of your life, you will end up in places that you do not want to be? Sometimes due to unconscious motivations and conditioning, we sabotage our success and relationships. As a therapist, I work to help clients build resiliency, gain clarity, and hold space to bring more meaning into their lives.

When we are exposed to trauma at an early age, it can seriously impact how we feel about ourselves and our relationships with others. Trauma can also profoundly affect whether we feel this is a safe world and can contribute to depression, anxiety, and relational/familial issues. My practice is from a strengths-based, trauma-informed perspective with a non-judgmental framework. I aim to understand clients’ internal responses and to provide more options for emotional regulation and problem-solving.

Suicidal Ideation Therapists
How does therapy for suicidal ideation work?
Stress, depression, anxiety, or upsetting circumstances can give rise to suicidal thinking. Therapy can address the events at the core of an individual’s suffering. Understanding why a person may be suicidal can help the therapist and the patient discover alternative methods of coping. A person with suicidal ideation may be mired in catastrophic thinking, and treatment like cognitive behavioral therapy is a good choice for breaking such patterns. In addition, treatment such as acceptance and commitment therapy can help a person manage their distress through better emotion regulation.
Which therapies are best for suicidal ideation?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful thoughts and past traumas. These therapies help an individual tolerate distress, regulate emotions, and not act on dangerous urges.
Are there specific medications to be combined with therapy?
The use of medication for suicidal thoughts must be aligned with the underlying cause; conditions such as depression, anxiety, and psychosis may be at the root of suicidal ideation. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for symptoms, which may include antipsychotics such as aripiprazole or antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.
How often and how long are therapy sessions for suicidal ideation?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, while others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. Still other patients, especially those with co-occurring conditions like major depression and anxiety, may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months. In some cases, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm.
