Registered Psychologist
“I am a registered psychologist who is committed to delivering genuine person-centered and strength-based therapy and providing a space that is safe, welcoming and free from judgement or stigma. As a therapist, I aim to assist and support clients in exploring their unique values and identities.”
About Me
I support individuals in discovering their unique values and identities, fostering a safe and non-judgmental space. As a registered psychologist, I deliver genuine person-centered and strength-based therapy. Clients benefit from a welcoming environment where they can openly explore their paths to well-being.
Approach
When you bring questions about personal values or your sense of self, I work with you to slow the pace, notice what matters, and try small, practical steps that feel manageable. Sessions are offered in Sydney or via secure online appointments, and I can work in English, Mandarin or Cantonese to suit your comfort. We use short experiential practices, gentle reflection and clear collaborative goals, with simple between-session tasks to build momentum. This approach suits people facing life changes, relationship strains, identity questions or persistent low mood.
