My theoretical orientations are Person-centered and Narrative Therapy, however, I also integrate evidence-based modalities to better address my client's unique needs, worldviews, interests, and goals.
I know how unsettling or daunting it can be to begin therapy. By being here, you've already taken a courageous step to work toward the issues you're experiencing.

My approach comes from a combination of perspectives including Family Systems Theory, person-centered, Gestalt, transpersonal orientations and Somatic Experiencing (SE).
I specialize in helping people who are struggling with anxiety, life transitions, parenting, relationships, loss and more. Many people that come for help are those who feel stuck overcoming obstacles and have tried to change their situation without success. I help people turn these obstacles into opportunities for understanding and growth.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor fluent in English and Mandarin and hold a master’s degree in counselling from City University of Seattle, Vancouver. I have been in the field of helping people for over a decade, and that’s where my passion is. I have specifically assisted divorced/separated families for over five years. I have a deep understanding of such a situation's dynamics, special needs, and difficulties and have my whole heart towards it. I also understand well about immigration families from my background. Although I spent my adulthood here, I have never forgotten my roots.

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.

Are you sick of waking up to another day of pain? Tired of trying to explain spoon theory to people committed to misunderstanding you?
