My name is Joanne. I am a Master’s level Canadian certified Counsellor (CCC) with the Canadian Counselling & Psychotherapy Association.
As an Asian counsellor, I understand that stigma towards mental health in the Asian community is a huge obstacle for clients to seeking help, especially for those who are in their teenage years.
My previous work experience with youth and young adults help me connect closely to younger generations. My hope is to walk with my clients who are in a stage of confusion and to find the right path together.
I specialize in youth, young adults, and couples therapy. I offered cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Solution-Focus Brief Therapy (SFBT), Trauma Informed Therapy, and Mindfulness alongside attachment theory, family systems and the Gottman Method.
