My Approach

Although I have learned to build a solid foundation of probable knowledge in psychology on a wider spectrum, my clients will always be the absolute center of my focus. My approach is personal, caring, and supportive of my clients regardless of their individual paths or familial contexts.
For instance, I believe stress is contextual of which management shall be based on facts, needs, transaction, and merits. I aim to devote myself to understanding the system in search of any contextual variables of which are embedded in our client’s & colleagues and in the larger system. I am humbly looking for my place in this system by utilising myself as a tool to support and empower said system based on the ecosystem perspectives of our clients, as well as the interpersonal and intra-psychic elements involved.
I aim to strengthen rather than symptomatology’s because the system itself, at its best form, aims for a level of proper functioning with a potentiality in resilience. If I had a therapist’s tail, I would want to confess that I am a believer in the power of positive thinking (Peale, 1954) and that I am guided by principles which are value based. My clinical experiences have both given me extensive experience working with clients from different backgrounds and a wide range of demographics. I have worked with clients diagnosed with depression, other mental illnesses and mental disorders, children with developmental issues, adult and elderly with marital issues and who have been diagnosed with depression or other mental health disorders, family trauma who are in transitional stages in family cycle crises.
Although I have been a clinical supervisor for PhD clinical psychology students in one of the most prestigious universities in Hong Kong, I have chosen to take the route of private practice where my full passions lay. And I have given talks surrounding child developmental issues, stress and anxiety management, couple and courtships, as well as mental health approaches and concerns.

About Me

I am a qualified UKCP Family and Systemic Psychotherapist and a previous lecturer in Social Science, Psychology. Throughout the years, I have trained at the University of San Francisco and the University of Hong Kong, earning an undergraduate degree in Philosophy in San Francisco and a postgraduate degree in psychology in the University of Hong Kong. And a master’s degree in social sciences: Family and family systemic psychotherapist (clinical experiences and field-related experiences in both international social services and family medicine department). Such academic institutions have provided me with substantial training in analytical skills and logic, which aid me in understanding other minds as well as other patterns of individual thinking and knowledge. My natural temperament means that to be respectful of others, to be amenable, to be socially competent, is to be my congruent – authentic self. This I believe, equips me with the optimal and necessary tools to be a more than competent systemic psychotherapist.
