背景
I am a Registered Social Worker with an MSW from the University of Waterloo and a BSW from McGill University. My background includes over a decade as a healthcare activist, along with clinical roles in hospitals, schools, and community organizations. I also hold additional credentials in Thanatology (grief, loss, and end-of-life care) and Behavioural Science (neurodiverse populations). I currently provide psychotherapy through the Toronto Psychology Clinic, offer counselling and facilitate programs at Wellspring Cancer Support Foundation, and deliver culturally informed therapy for NIHB participants.
與我經歷治療的體驗
Clients often describe working with me as a collaborative, validating, and empowering experience. I offer a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and strengths-based approach, creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore challenges at your own pace. I work from a place of deep empathy and lived experience—particularly with cancer survivorship and intergenerational trauma—allowing me to hold space for the emotional complexity of life-altering events. Together, we will work toward clarity, resilience, and meaningful change.

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:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns and beliefs that contribute to emotional distress and problematic behaviours. By learning to reframe these thoughts and develop healthier coping strategies, clients can make lasting change and improve their overall functioning.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT helps clients develop psychological flexibility by teaching them to accept difficult thoughts and emotions rather than fight or avoid them. Clients learn to connect with the present moment, clarify their personal values, and take committed actions aligned with those values.

Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR)
This approach reduces stress, anxiety, and emotional reactivity by helping clients observe their thoughts and feelings without judgment. MBSR can enhance emotional regulation, improve focus, and promote a greater sense of calm and well-being.

Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy focuses on the connection between the mind and body, helping clients become aware of how emotional experiences are stored physically. Through body-based techniques clients learn to release tension, regulate their nervous system, and process trauma.
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:

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy

Emotion-focused Therapy (EFT)

Solution-focused Therapy
