I’m a second gen Hong Kong Canada settler on the unceded ancestral lands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, sḵwx̱wú7mesh and sel̓íl̓witulh Nations, colonially known as North Vancouver.
People have described me as compassionate, perceptive, and down to earth. I care about inclusivity and acknowledging how cultural, community, history, and systemic realities shape us. I take an active, collaborative, anti-oppressive stance rooted in building a genuine therapeutic alliance that honours your voice, truth, and agency.
I support adults of all genders navigating many emotional journeys (such as guilt, anxiety, resentment, sacred rage, and grief) stemming from complex relationships, family, history, and high-pressure environments. I cherish working with BIPOC identities, adult children of immigrants, newcomers, diaspora communities, those who have survived adverse childhoods, and those feel disconnected and are struggling with self worth.
I believe in humanity-first therapy that is collaborative, restorative, and evolves with your healing and growth. Many people drawn to this space are seeking deeper reflection, guidance, and embodiment. As a trauma-responsive counsellor, we move at a pace that allows time for your mind, body and heart to digest, building inner safeness and self trust one moment at a time.
In our shared space, I will help you discover your learning and processing style, and integrate therapies and visual/sensory tools that align with you. Your wisdom, humanity and inner knowing are honoured. Together, we can uncover what’s been overlooked, neglected or in need of nourishment, and tend to them with compassion and curiosity. I show up with warmth and transparency, as a fellow human, tuning into what resonates with you.
Outside the therapy, I try to live life to the fullest. I have a quirky playful side that loves to dance and live in levity. I enjoy going on nature walks, playing legos with my nephews, having tea with friends, relaxing with my partner, and getting through my never-ending book list.
I’d be honoured to hear from you wherever you are in your healing journey. Please feel free to explore my website, or reach out directly to set up a free 20-minute conversation to see if working together feels right for you.
