Welcome to JFW Healing
The meaning of JFW Healing JFW Healing stands for Just for the Wounded - Healing. Dr. Yick was inspired by the term "wounded healer" which is originated from psychologist Carl Jung whose concept is that the psychoanalysts/ psychotherapists themselves have had psychologically wounding experiences. Dr Yick herself very much relate to this idea. Therefore, she chose to embrace and emphasise the word "wounded" in my practice as it is vital to address and acknowledge that many of us are just wounded humans. Sometimes, the internal wounds may seem small that we might not have noticed until we encounter bigger challenges later in life. The process of psychotherapy/ counselling allows your emotional wounds to be seen and acknowledged. This is where the healing begins. |
About Dr. Janet Yick
關於易善妍博士
Janet is a trilingual (Cantonese, Mandarin, English) Counselling Psychologist (HCPC-registered) as well as a EMDR therapist based in Bristol, providing a culturally attuning counselling and psychotherapy services to clients of diverse backgrounds. Janet has had more than 12 years of clinical experiences, specialising in sexuality, gender and relationship diversity issues, trauma and adults' mental health problems. In addition, she's had substantial experiences in working with neurodivergent (mainly ADHD & autism) adults and adolescents, and adults who struggle with eating difficulties.
Originally from Hong Kong, and growing up in the UK and Canada during her adolescence and young adulthood, Janet has acquired a strong awareness and openness to individual and cultural differences. Before she embarked on the journey in understanding human minds and behaviours, she had experienced a great deal of struggles in balancing between her own needs and the expectation of the wider society until she became fully aware of her urge in pursuing a fulfilling and meaningful role that reflects herself.
In Janet's practice, not only does she integrate a range of evidence-based approaches (e.g., CBT, psychodynamic therapy, systemic approach, ACT), she also places a strong focus on diversity and inclusion. In recent years, she has expanded her practice in working with minority ethic individuals and trauma survivors. As such, she has gained a deep understanding of the interconnections of various social identities within an individual.
If your concerns are associated with your cultural/ ethnic background, and the wider systems, Janet may be the right psychologist for you. Over the past 5 years, she's been offering online psychotherapy sessions to individuals from different parts of the World. In the past, she offered therapy to individuals who reside in/ are originally from Africa, France, Finland, Sweden, Nigeria, Chile, Thailand, India, Korea, Japan, UAE, Singapore, Macau, Taiwan, and Mainland China.
