Experiencing difficult emotions in face of life challenges or crisis are often considered as “problems” that make us feel vulnerable, powerless or shameful. Although these "problems" are often natural human experiences, we sometimes struggle with the critical inner voice and have little compassion towards self. Psychotherapy is neither a quick fix of your psychological wounds nor a direct path to happiness. It's a process where you can start connecting with yourself and make sense of your own narrative in a safe and respectful space. The process of relating to a genuine human being itself could be the start of your healing journey.

How I work in the therapeutic space?
My therapeutic approach is relational integrative approach, which means that I focus on the relational context in therapy while applying different kinds of therapy and techniques to fit the needs and difficulties of each individual. For example, in psychodynamic therapy, I focus on the unconscious processes and past events, which will facilitate the client to make sense of what is going on through enhancing self-awareness into present difficulties. In CBT, we can work collaboratively to explore your beliefs and personal rules that contribute to the maintenance of the difficulties in life. Besides this, I'm a trained EMDR therapist (Registered member of EMDR Association of Hong Kong).
I offer both short-term and long-term online/ in-person counselling sessions to suit individual's needs and circumstances.
