I am an experienced counsellor and lecturer specializing in multicultural counselling, with extensive professional experience and a strong educational foundation. My practice emphasizes promoting mental health, fostering inclusive spaces, and embracing cultural and sexual diversity. Continuously refining my skills through the latest advancements in counselling research, I bring an integrative and client-centered approach to therapy.
As an integrative practitioner, I
customize therapeutic approaches to meet each client’s unique needs and
circumstances.
Combining techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy,
person-centered therapy, and other modalities, I focus on creating supportive
environments that facilitate healing and growth.
My goal is to help clients
understand their challenges, explore solutions, and thrive.
Through talk therapy, I provide a
secure, non-judgmental environment where clients can express their feelings and
gain self-awareness.
By offering empathetic understanding and employing
tailored therapeutic methods, I empower clients to evaluate their choices and
explore new possibilities.
Sessions are personalized to address each client’s
specific needs and preferences.
Education: MS in Counselling (Australia), Diploma in

Masculinity Studies (HK).
Counselling
Roles: Richmond Mind
(UK), Royal Holloway University of London (UK), Education University of Hong
Kong (HK), Sexuality for All (HK), and Hong Kong AIDS Foundation (HK).
Specializations: Over 20 years of experience supporting
marginalized groups, including sexual and gender minorities, people living with
HIV, individuals with disabilities, and migrants. My work reflects a deep
understanding of diverse cultural, social, and economic backgrounds.
I offer a free 10-minute consultation via phone or video to ensure the right therapeutic fit. If my services are not suitable, I am happy to provide referrals. Therapy sessions are typically 50 minutes weekly, with progress often observed within 6 to 8 sessions, though the duration depends on individual needs. Clients maintain control over their therapeutic journey, including decisions on session length and termination.
The first session is an opportunity to explore reasons for seeking therapy and set achievable goals. Conversations are confidential, fostering trust and collaboration. I offer therapy in English and Cantonese, ensuring cultural sensitivity and effective communication.
