Waitlist for new clients
Have you ever felt that whatever lousy habit you try to break, you keep on relapsing? Do you tend to sabotage work opportunities and relationships? Are relationships a source of distress for you? Do you sometimes feel your body is startled without any apparent reason? Given the situation, have you heard from other people that you are overreacting? (and, of course, this made you even more reactive). Are you far too familiar with feelings of anxiety and recurrent low mood? Or, in other moments, are you shutting off and experiencing a sense of numbness, detachment, or not even being fully present in your body? Trauma therapy can help!

Life can be a struggle, and for some, the reasons for seeking therapy are clear: you might be exhausted, easily irritated, or extra sensitive. Perhaps you're constantly worrying or stuck in a low mood. Maybe you struggle to connect with others and fear you don't belong. You've noted specific problems you want to understand better and overcome. However, there are also times when it might not be so evident and you sense a lack of meaning, purpose, and satisfaction, and want to explore a way forward. I typically work with young (18+) and adult professionals looking to make more meaningful rather than reactive changes to their lives.

We all encounter a degree of adversity at some point - often many points - in our lives. Whether this adversity involves stress, loss, transition, trauma or general uncertainty - you don’t have to navigate these difficult circumstances on your own. I specialise in guiding my clients through these periods, by first establishing stability; and then working towards growth and greater resilience. Our focus might be developing new coping/relationship/interpersonal skills; building insight in to how early trauma or past experiences may be impacting you; or reconnecting to your sense of self and meaning/purpose, among other things.

I work with people who are feeling the effects of adversity such as stress, transitions, loss, or trauma. The type of adversity my clients have been through is often complex and multilayered. It is not necessarily a single event that is causing distress, but a series of past or ongoing events. Humans are brilliant at adapting through adversity, and over time, these adaptations can become practiced patterns. When the patterns outlive their usefulness, however, they can become a source of anxiety, overwhelm, or distress.

LGBT Friendly counseling service provider. My psychotherapy approach is based on psycho-dynamic, object relations, Satir, and client-centered. I offer a safe space to explore your thoughts, experiences, and feelings through verbal, projective and unconscious (free-association) means. The intention is not to offer advice or guidance, but to listen, accept, and perhaps gently challenge you, genuinely and without judgment, in your exploration of your experiences. You may come to find it easier to listen to and accept yourself, and to be able to make more genuinely fulfilling choices for yourself.

It can be daunting figuring out where to begin when finding a counselor or even if you need a counselor. Whether you are going through day-to-day challenges, or you just feel off, we all need a safe space from time to time to explore and gain perspective on what we are experiencing. I seek to provide my clients a safe space to be human, with all the fears, imperfections and struggles that come with that. I help clients through life changes, and I help clients understand life experiences impact our identities and core beliefs.

I work with adults and teenagers struggling with anxiety, depression, anger management, low self esteem and personality disorders. I help clients work on thought distortions at the roots of their distress which in turn helps alleviate their strong negative emotions (worry, shame, guilt, sadness, self-loathing etc.). Most of my clients see an easing of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often meet clients as they are reaching the limits of their abilities to handle life's surprises. This doesn't necessarily mean that their lives are falling apart, but they're recognising what is working for them now may not always work and they're seeking new ideas and new ways to live. Whether that is handling stress at work, dealing with conflicts in their relationships, clients I work with often feel like they're coming up short and are unable to break through - in short, like they're stuck. They want to try something new but are unsure what may work and are looking for resources and support to build themselves up.

FAQs - About Therapy and Counselling

How can I find a therapist in Sheung Wan?

Search for nearby therapists or counsellors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or postcode; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or postcode into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
