At the core of every relationship is the need for trust. As a counsellor, I'm committed to building a strong foundation of trust and safety with the people I work with as we process life's ups and downs together. Non-judgment, collaboration and respect are central to my counselling approach, which gently guide people to discover authentic solutions to their issues.
I am ethnically Chinese, grew up in British colonial Hong Kong, and have also lived in the UK and Canada before relocating to Taiwan, where I am now based. I have special insight into Asian diaspora and Third-Culture Kid experiences, and offer culturally-informed therapy in English, Cantonese or Mandarin.
Together, we can try to understand the difficulties you're facing, and discover ways of responding to them that are right for you. Healing and facing change aren't always easy, but you don't have to go it alone. Whenever you're ready, please get in touch.

I support people who are going through a challenging time, usually a transition period affecting their career, relationships, and quality of life. Together we work to understand the issues at hand, tracing their roots to earlier experiences. Through unlocking memories and available resources, we forge workable paths forward that are grounded in the person's needs, preferences and values.

I use an integrated approach, blending ACT, compassion-focused, narrative and psychodynamic therapies. The main ethos behind my work is to create a space for people to connect with what they value. Over time, instead of avoiding difficult feelings, people can start to embrace what these feelings might be trying to say about their hopes, dreams, and preferred directions.
