I understand that navigating life’s transitions—whether it’s dealing with academic pressures, managing relationships, or balancing cultural identities—can feel overwhelming. Many of us struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, and the weight of expectations, leaving us feeling stuck or unsure about the future. If you’re experiencing any of these challenges, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to go through it by yourself.

As someone who has worked extensively with teenagers, young adults, and those managing the complexities of cultural identity, I’m here to help you find clarity and regain control over your life. Together, we can create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to face these challenges head-on.

If you’re ready to take the next step towards understanding yourself better and building a more balanced, fulfilling life, I invite you to reach out. Let’s work together to explore your unique journey and help you thrive in ways that truly resonate with who you are and who you want to become. I look forward to connecting with you and being part of your growth and healing journey.

My ideal clients are children and adolescents navigating family dynamics and identity formation, where issues often revolve around emotional and psychological challenges stemming from family relationships. These young clients face difficulties such as strained communication with parents, feelings of inadequacy, and the pressure to meet both familial and personal expectations. The issues often manifest in their daily lives through anxiety, low self-esteem, and, at times, rebellious or withdrawn behavior.

About me.

I earned both a Master’s degree in Global Mental Health and Counselling Psychology and an Honours Bachelor of Science in Mental Health Studies at the University of Toronto. My most recent practical experience was as an Intern Psychotherapist at Hangzhou Normal University Counselling Centre in China. During this time, I delivered over 150 hours of CBT sessions to more than 50 university students, addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, PTSD disorders, academic pressures, self-esteem struggles, life transitions, and interpersonal difficulties. As an international student with a bilingual background, I am passionate about understanding the distinct pressures people encounter while navigating multiple identities.

Client Focus: Couples, Families, individuals, children (starting at 5+)

Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by your child’s behaviours? Do you find yourself saying things like, “Just listen to me!” or feeling frustrated by constant crying, anger outbursts, or conflicts with others? Doubting your parenting skills? If these scenarios resonate with you, you’re not alone. As a Child-Centered Play Therapist (CCPT) with over five years experience working with children aged 3 to 10, and teenagers, I specialize in helping kids navigate their emotions and behaviours through play. CCPT isn’t just about playing; it’s a therapeutic approach that uses play as a language for children to express their feelings, thoughts, and experiences in a safe and supportive environment. This method has proven effective in addressing various challenges and fostering growth and development in children.

In addition to CCPT, I integrate art therapy and Emotional-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help children and parents understand, acknowledge, and gradually accept emotions—both positive and negative. I also provide emotional support and psychoeducation for parents and caregivers, equipping them with the tools and insights to better understand and support their children. Let’s work together to create positive changes in your child’s life. Together, we can explore new dimensions in your experience and foster hope for a brighter future.
