It will take at least 3-4 sessions to establish a picture of your concerns and your hopes for therapy. From there, we will dedicate subsequent sessions to addressing those concerns. How long this takes depends on what you want to address and your personal sense of when therapy feels “complete”.

I am open to short- and long-term therapy, though most of my clients work with me on a longer-term basis (one year or more).

In the beginning, it is ideal to see each other weekly or biweekly in order to establish rhythm and comfort in our working relationship.

Oftentimes, after a period of weekly sessions, clients shift to less frequent sessions, or even come in on an as-needed basis. I am always willing to have collaborative discussions about session frequency, and it is ultimately up to the client how often they would like to come in.

The focus of each session depends on what each client needs. The session is structured around whatever is most present for that person. Clients always set the agenda, and I strive to provide an appropriate amount of structure, containment, and/or guidance to support what each client wants for themselves.

We may explore relationship patterns, emotions, thoughts, or somatic (body-based) sensations that arise during the conversation. My role is to offer a steady presence, provide gentle observations, and ask questions to support each client’s connection to their own voice and inner world.

I am an integrative therapist, which means that I pull from several different approaches. I am trained in Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Attachment Focused EMDR (AF-EMDR), the Neuro-Affective Relational Model (NARM), Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

How I work with clients is guided by their needs and their nervous system, not by rigid adherence to any models or frameworks.

I do not bill directly to insurance. Please see your insurance provider’s mental health offerings to determine whether you can submit a claim for my services. Many insurance providers in Hong Kong do cover psychotherapy. I can provide formal invoices that are compliant with your insurance company’s claim submission requirements.

Yes, I am qualified to provide professional psychotherapy services for individuals.

To obtain this qualification, I completed graduate level coursework through an accredited Canadian institution at the Master’s level for 2.5 years, and an intensive, supervised 500+ hour practicum placement over 8 months. I have also participated in extensive additional training to build specialized expertise in trauma-informed care and relational trauma treatment. You can read more about my professional credentials by visiting the About Me page and scrolling to the bottom.

I offer both in-person and online sessions, and the choice is completely yours. We can even try both to see what you’d prefer.

I work with adults and young adults (18+).

I do not offer couple or family therapy at this time.

Depending on licensing requirements and local regulations, I may be able to work with international clients. Please reach out to me with your location so I can determine if this is possible. Our timezone differences will have to align, too!

I also felt some hesitation the first time I entered therapy.

I recommend trying out a free consultation call to determine whether you can imagine yourself becoming comfortable in sessions with me. You can hear my voice, feel how our conversation flows, and ask me about anything related to therapy. There is no expectation to talk about anything specific during this call.

From there, you will likely have a better idea of what you’d like to do, and you can take some time to reflect on our conversation and let me know if you’d like to move forward. There is no obligation and I encourage everyone to chat with a few different therapists to see who feels like the right fit.

I am happy to refer you to another qualified professional in Hong Kong if I don’t end up being the therapist for you. My hope is for each person I speak with to find a therapist they feel great about.
