English背景
I've been a Registered Psychologist since 2009 and have specialized in addiction psychology since that time. Working with addiction means supporting people in changing their relationship with substances and behaviours like food, sex, work, spending, screentime, smoking, codependency and relationships. Alongside this, it means helping people get to know themselves again and work on improving health, relationships, esteem, boundaries, and more. I value practicality and connection in therapy, which many people I've worked with also seem to appreciate. Each session will be a blend of sharing, information, and strategies that help you live the life you deserve.
與我經歷治療的體驗
Our sessions will be a conversation where we explore the issues, stumbling blocks and successes that you are experiencing to identify where new learning, tools and strategies may be relevant. I value a grounded, practical approach to counselling which includes offering suggestions for steps outside of counselling to support yourself. I've been told that I'm a good listener, easy to talk to, practical, and that I surprise people when I swear or speak more realistically rather than a 'therapist.' After all, I'm a person too!

治療手法
這些是我主要的治療手法，均接受過專業訓練或有豐富臨床經驗：
動機性面談 (Motivational Interviewing)
This helps identify where people are, where they would like to be, and the realistic next steps to get there
認知行為療法 (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT))
This helps people explore the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviours
敘事治療 (Narrative Therapy)
This helps build a stronger relationship with self, lessen shame, and find freedom from the stories that hold us back
當臨床上適用時，我也能靈活應用這些實證為本的治療手法：
接納與承諾療法 (Acceptance And Commitment Therapy)
辯證行為療法 (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy)
以解決為導向的療法 (Solution-focused Therapy)
