Being a counsellor is my calling.
Every day, I feel deeply grateful to walk alongside people in their healing, growth, and self-discovery. Over the years, through both my professional work and personal life experiences, I have come to believe deeply that each person already carries strength, resilience, wisdom, and the capacity for healing within them, even during seasons when they may feel lost, overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain of themselves.
At the heart of my work is helping people reconnect with those inner resources so that meaningful change can emerge from within.
I grew up in mainland China and relocated to Vancouver in 2021. Since 2012, I have been married to my Canadian husband, and together we are raising our three wonderful children. Building a life in a new country while raising a young family far from extended family has brought both beauty and challenge. Through these experiences, the desire to support others has remained a constant and meaningful part of my life.
My journey has shaped not only who I am as a person, but also the way I understand and connect with the people I work with.
Having lived in different regions of China before immigrating to Canada, I became familiar with the diversity that exists within Chinese culture itself — different family dynamics, values, communication styles, expectations, and life realities. Living in Canada further expanded my understanding of the meeting place between Eastern and Western cultures, and the complexity many individuals and families experience while trying to navigate both worlds.
As someone in an interracial marriage and as a parent raising children in a multicultural environment, I have also personally encountered many of the questions modern families face: identity, belonging, communication across cultures, parenting pressures, generational differences, and balancing personal growth with family responsibilities. These experiences have deepened my empathy and broadened my perspective as a counsellor.
I understand, both personally and professionally, some of the struggles immigrants may face — the loneliness, the pressure to adapt, the feeling of living between worlds, and the desire to build a meaningful life while carrying parts of another culture within you. I also understand the experiences of many second-generation young people growing up balancing different cultural expectations at home and in society.
As both a parent and a counsellor, I care deeply about the emotional well-being of individuals and families. I believe the family unit can become a powerful place of healing, growth, and transformation not only for children, but also for parents themselves. I am passionate about supporting women, busy mothers, immigrants, cross-cultural couples, and parents navigating the complexities of modern life. I also support couples who feel stuck in painful relationship patterns, helping them build communication, emotional awareness, and deeper connection.
My approach is client-centered, integrative, culturally sensitive, and trauma-informed. I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities tailored to each person’s unique story and needs. I support clients through challenges such as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, identity questions, and major life transitions.
I am also an ICBC-approved counsellor and an approved provider with Pacific Blue Cross, Sun Life, Provider Connect, and TELUS Health.
Most importantly, I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and begin moving toward healing, clarity, connection, and growth.
And in many ways, this journey continues — both for my clients and for myself.
