My therapeutic approach is a variety of modalities such as Emotionally Focused, Person Centered and Acceptance Commitment therapies.
It's not easy taking that first step. You've probably been thinking about it for awhile. Opening up to a stranger, sharing personal thoughts and feelings, fear of being judged; these are some of the reasons people put off going for help. I get it! I'm here to give you a soft place to land, a place where you can speak and be heard, and to process your unique life experiences. Together, we can work on coping skills, grounding techniques or just talk it out, whatever you need to work through any challenging emotions in order to move towards healing.

As a counsellor, it is a privilege to support clients in their journeys to find more joy, feel less overwhelmed by difficult emotions, improve relationships, and feel more compassion for themselves.

I practice counselling with a person centered approach, using family systems, IFS and CBT, depending on what is in line with each client.
If we all could have the option to be supported and heard with our struggles, to be connected and cared for, perhaps our ability to move through them and towards our goals would be different. What is it you wish to shift, where would your life be right now? How can I help you get there? If you are a victim of crime you may be eligible for counselling through CVAP. I am an approved CVAP counsellor.

Seeking counselling could be a life changing experience and could be scary as well. Esther came from a culture that did not necessary see counselling as needed and so going through her own journey of finding a counsellor felt scary, overwhelming, and at times discouraging. Over the years of Esther's career, she has met people with similar fears and have had some ask the following question, " how do I find the right therapist that understands me, sees me, and could connect with me in creating a healing space that feels right for me". This is where Esther comes in with her experience to support you in finding what feels right.

My counselling approach is a blend of various modalities, but I primarily take a Person-Centered approach that is based in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (a mind-body approach), and Attachment Theory.
Welcome! My name is Clem and I am an Asian Canadian of Chinese descent, originally from Toronto but have called BC home since 1998. My journey in the healing professions began 20 years ago in Victoria, BC, where I studied Shiatsu and other Eastern healing traditions. Since then, I have developed a personal therapeutic style that incorporates social justice, compassion, and a holistic view of the individual. I know that choosing a counsellor can be a daunting experience; it requires a commitment of energy, resources, and a great deal of courage. I have the deepest admiration and respect for anyone who is willing to ask for help.
