背景

I have worked in the mental health field since 2022. I enjoy the work that I do by helping people who are struggling with their mental health and tailoring my approaches based on what every individual needs. I do my best to create a positive and safe environment where individuals feel comfortable opening up about their struggles so that we can work together to explore how we can best help you. Although it might be nerve-wracking, know that you have already taken that first step by asking for help.

与我经历治疗的体验

I offer an integrative approach to finding what is best suited for you and your needs. This includes Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Strength-Based Therapy, Person-Centred, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I give you the space and time you need to grow and implement changes while also exploring what potential challenges you come across and finding ways to overcome them so that we can help you achieve your goals.

治疗手法

这些是我主要的治疗手法，均接受过专业训练或有丰富临床经验：

认知行为疗法 (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT))

CBT helps you identify, challenge, and modify maladaptive thinking patterns. It can help in addressing anxiety, depression, PTSD, and more. It can help you gain strategies for ways to manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours in difficult situations.

辩证行为疗法 (Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT))

DBT is beneficial in helping individuals manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and reduce harmful behaviours. I introduce emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills to help indiviudals who struggle with regulating their emotions. This approach is effective for those with BPD.

优势导向方法 (Strength-based Approach)

I use a strength-based approach, which involves focusing on and utilizing your strengths and resources to facilitate positive change. This type of approach can enhance one's self-esteem, and we build upon your existing strengths and skills.

接纳与承诺疗法 (Acceptance And Commitment Therapy (ACT))

I use ACT to help individuals accept uncomfortable experiences/feelings and commit to using their values when exploring what actions to take. It involves opening up about your thoughts and feelings without judgment and learning to observe them as they are rather than being controlled by them.

当临床上适用时，我也能灵活应用这些实证为本的治疗手法：

以人为本的方法 (Person-centered Approach)

正念减压（MBSR） (Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR))

解决导向短程疗法 (Solution Focused Brief Therapy)

正念 (Mindfulness)

整合疗法 (Integrative)

创伤知情疗法 (Trauma-informed Therapy)

正念认知疗法 (Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy)
