Passionate about life design, I take a solution focused approach to provide one-on-one career counselling/coaching and group workshops.
I am a caring and supportive Career Counsellor and Art Therapist, coaching and counselling clients looking to transition into a more meaningful, purposeful and balanced life. Face-to-face clients love the creative activities and program I have developed to help clients identify their skills and strengths, enhance self-esteem and confidence, and clarify goals. Anxiety, fear and negative past experiences can get in the way of making changes in your life and affect your wellbeing. Taking a positive, solution-focussed approach to deal with these issues and enhance client wellbeing is at the heart of my practice.

I use a combination of coaching and psychology.
I focus on supporting people who come from immigrant families who want to be in more control of their own lives and be more self-efficient. This includes if you: 1) want to improve how you feel and think; 2) want more out of life; 3) want to be better equipped with dealing with family, partners, friends, colleagues or new people. So if you want to enhance your ability to manage emotions or your internal voice that’s critical of you, if you want to get motivated, enhance your effectiveness in an area of life or if you just want more balance, if you want to be more self-assured or if you want support with dealing with discrimination.

You are worthy of happiness and working on yourself is the best thing you can do to move forward to a better life.
Online : As a psychotherapist and a registered psychologist I have experience in many modalities. Empathically oriented, I like to get to the root cause of your current struggle and offer practical solutions. I work best with people who have already had some therapy and know that personal growth and healing is ongoing and absolutely worth it. Psychotherapy explores your current issues through the lens of your past. It's not all about "tell me how you feel", or talking about your childhood, but if this isn't taken into consideration we can't get the entire picture of how to help you be the fullest version of your true authentic self.

From collaborating with different people through therapy over the years, I have noticed that even everyday people feel the effects of modern life on their mental health. This is because modern life comes with a lot of complexity and demands. Today, people pursue a combination of identity, lifestyle, fulfilment, achievement, supportive relationships, a work-life balance, financial gain, career progression, a bigger world purpose, and more. The pursuit is wonderful, however navigating these demands can strain our mental health over time.

Life Coaching Counsellors
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
