At the core of every relationship is the need for trust. As a counsellor, I am committed to creating a safe and supportive space for clients to process life's ups and downs, no matter big or small. Central to my counselling approach are non-judgment, collaboration and cultural sensitivity, which guide clients to unique, authentic solutions to their issues.
Having grown up in Hong Kong and lived in the UK, Canada, and Taiwan, I have extensive experience forging a transnational identity and maintaining relationships amidst different languages and cultural settings. I offer counselling that is informed and respectful of cultural norms and nuances - in English, Cantonese, or Mandarin.
I applaud you for taking this courageous first step to seek support. Together, we can try to understand the nature of the difficulties you face, and how you might overcome them in ways that are right for you. Change takes work and isn't always easy, but you don't have to do it alone. Whenever you're ready, please get in touch.

I support clients who are going through a challenging time, usually a transition period affecting their career, relationships, and personal life. Together we work to understand the issues at hand, and to compassionately identify the roots of patterns and habits from formative experiences. From these insights we forge workable paths forward that are grounded in the client's preferences and values.

I use an integrated approach, blending ACT, compassion-focused, psychodynamic, and narrative therapies. The main ethos behind my work is to create a space for clients to connect with what they value, so that rather than try to avoid or manage difficult feelings, they can slowly embrace what these feelings might be trying to say about their core needs, hopes and preferred directions.
