About us
I work with adults on an individual and couple basis, offering a warm, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can explore whatever is troubling you at your own pace.
I believe that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is at the heart of effective counselling. I aim to provide a space where you don't have to present a polished version of yourself. Whatever you bring into the room, whether that is uncertainty, anger, sadness, shame or confusion, you will be met with compassion, curiosity and respect. Therapy is not about being judged or "fixed"; it is about understanding yourself more fully and discovering new ways of relating to yourself and others.
Taking the first step into counselling can feel daunting. You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, family challenges, grief, or simply feeling overwhelmed. Reaching out for support is often one of the hardest steps to take. Having experienced therapy myself, I understand how vulnerable it can feel to share your thoughts and emotions with someone new.
Whether you speak English, Mandarin, or Cantonese, I provide a space where your cultural background is understood, not just explained. My aim is to create a therapeutic relationship where you feel safe, heard, understood, and accepted.
My way of working is psychodynamic, which means we explore not only what is happening in your life now, but also how earlier experiences and relationships may be influencing your thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and relationships today. Together, we work to understand recurring patterns, unresolved emotions, and unconscious processes that may be keeping you feeling stuck.
Rather than offering quick solutions, psychodynamic therapy focuses on creating lasting change through greater self-awareness and understanding. As insight develops, many people find they are able to respond to life's challenges with greater confidence, self-compassion, and emotional resilience.
What therapy can help you achieve
Through our work together, you may begin to:
- Gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your emotional world.
- Explore how past experiences and relationships continue to influence your present.
- Recognise and change unhelpful patterns in your thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
- Develop healthier ways of managing anxiety, low mood, and emotional distress.
- Build greater self-esteem, confidence, and self-acceptance.
Improve your relationships by understanding the ways you connect with others. - Feel more able to cope with life's challenges and make choices that reflect who you are.
Every person's journey is unique, and therapy is tailored to your individual needs. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to work alongside you as you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and create meaningful, lasting change.

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.
