Mac uses a strengths-based perspective to support those seeking clarity within diverse social contexts, including social justice. This approach is ideal for anyone wanting to understand themselves more deeply, fostering connection and personal growth.
Approach
Facing complex family and identity questions, I lean into curiosity and careful mapping to make sense of patterns and possibilities. Sessions in Markham or online, in English or Mandarin, move at a steady, client-paced rhythm where we name dominant stories and try small, practical experiments. I weave attachment-informed reflections and concise neuroscience observations with narrative techniques—together we track responses, rehearse new interactions, and use brief between-session notes to test shifts. This approach tends to help young adults, couples, parents, and those navigating cross-cultural or LGBTQI+ concerns seeking clearer relationships and practical change.
