About me
You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in difficult patterns, or unsure where to begin. You do not need to have the right words or be “ready” before contacting me.
I offer a calm, confidential and non-judgemental space to talk about what is happening in your life. I work with adults, young people and children, including people experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma-related concerns, ADHD, autism and questions of identity or belonging.
My approach is integrative and person-centred. This means we will work at a pace that feels manageable for you, drawing on conversation, reflection and, where useful, creative approaches. Therapy is not about fixing who you are; it is about making sense of your experiences and finding ways to live with greater clarity, choice and self-understanding.
If you are considering therapy for the first time, you are welcome to book an introductory call or send me a message. We can discuss what you are looking for, any practical needs, and whether working together feels like the right fit
我可以用英語、廣東話或普通話進行輔導。無論你正面對情緒困擾、關係壓力、身份認同、家庭期望，或只是感到很累、不知道從何說起，你都不需要先把一切整理好才來見我。輔導是一個保密、尊重和不批判的空間，我們可以按你的步伐慢慢開始。初次接受輔導，建議先從8至12次晤談開始，讓彼此熟悉，再決定下一步。
Training, qualifications & experience
- BSc Joint Honours in Psychology & Philosophy
- Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (CPCAB)
- PG Foundation in Dramatherapy
- Level 3 in Understanding Mental Health
- Level 2 in Understanding Autism
My approach is integrative, meaning I do not use one fixed method for everyone. Instead, I adapt therapy to you, your needs and what you hope to gain from counselling.
My work is grounded in person-centred and humanistic therapy: building a supportive, non-judgemental relationship in which you can explore what matters to you. Depending on what feels helpful, I may also draw on psychodynamic and Gestalt ideas to explore patterns, relationships and past experiences; mindfulness-informed approaches; and creative methods informed by my training in dramatherapy.
I also take a strengths-focused approach, paying attention not only to what feels difficult, but to what is already helping, what matters to you, and the resources you have to draw on.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Additional information
For first-timers, it’s often hard to know where to start, or how long it should take. I usually suggest beginning with 8 to 12 sessions. That’s enough time to properly get to know each other and let something real start to surface, with a natural point to pause and decide together what comes next. There’s no pressure to continue beyond that, and no fixed idea of how long the work should take overall.
如果您是初次接受輔導，8至12次晤談或許能讓我們有較充足的時間彼此了解；之後，您可以再按自己的需要，與我一起決定下一步。
Further information
In a first session, we will talk about what has brought you to counselling, what you would like support with and any practical needs or preferences you have. You do not need to tell your whole story straight away. We will go at a pace that feels manageable and can decide together whether continuing feels right.
I offer counselling in English, Cantonese and Mandarin. I welcome clients exploring culture, migration, family expectations, identity, belonging, racism, bicultural life or Third Culture experiences.
This service is not designed for emergencies. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999 or go to A&E. If you need urgent emotional support, contact Samaritans on 116 123 or use an appropriate local NHS crisis service.
