You may be feeling stressed and overwhelmed. You have tried therapy before but without success, or you may have never talked about this issue to anyone. Either way, you feel stuck and you can't imagine continuing through life the way things are at present. You may have experienced childhood trauma, deal with self-harm, struggle to keep your emotions in check, have experienced adoption/foster care, spiritual abuse, or just feel unwell. You need a safe place to unburden yourself. You want to feel seen, heard, and understood. You need to untangle the messy web of life. You just need some peace and hope in your life.
My approach is client-led, trauma-informed, evidence-based, and tailored to each individual. I often use emotionally-focused individual therapy which is a more experiential approach to talk therapy. Though I also dip into dialectical behaviour, cognitive behavioural, narrative, and solution-focused therapy depending on the client's needs.
As an Asian-Canadian female and mother of two adopted children with disabilities, I see resilience and inherent strengths in others. Please remember that circumstances and feelings change, and things can get better. I would be honoured to walk with you toward healing. Book a free 15 mins. video consultation to see if I am the right therapist for you.
