About My Clients

Therapy with me is about creating a space where you can show up as a real human being—messy thoughts, complicated emotions, existential crises, and all. I work best with clients who are reflective, curious, and motivated to make meaningful changes in their lives. You do not need to “have it all figured out” before starting therapy. In fact, most people come in somewhere between “I’m trying my best” and “I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing.”

My Background and Approach

I integrate evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), somatic approach, and mindfulness-based interventions. I believe that meaningful healing comes from understanding both your present challenges and the experiences that have shaped who you are. As a therapist who provides counseling in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese (我提供英文、普通话及粤语心理咨询服务), I understand that culture, identity, family expectations, immigration, and life transitions can significantly influence mental health. I enjoy working with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds and strive to create a culturally responsive therapeutic environment where every part of your story is welcomed and respected.
