About Me

I support individuals facing depression, navigating complex relationships, or exploring cross-cultural and LGBT identity concerns. As an experienced counsellor, I understand the unique pressures these challenges bring. My aim is to create a calm, understanding space where you can openly explore your experiences. We can work together to find clarity, strengthen connections, and build resilience. This approach helps you move towards a more grounded sense of self.

Approach

Sessions feel calm and focused, paced to your needs so we can gently track mood shifts, relationship patterns, and cultural pressures that shape choices. I work with clients in English from Shanghai and online, weaving practical tools and reflection so insights carry into daily life between meetings. Therapy blends short experiments, boundary practice, narrative clarity and advocacy when systems are involved, always guided by your priorities and timing. People juggling cross-cultural identity, relationship strain or depressive cycles often find this steady, collaborative pace helpful.
