In the first session, clients can expect a safe, welcoming environment where we’ll focus on building rapport and understanding your unique needs. We will explore your goals for therapy, discuss your history, and identify key areas you’d like to work on. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions and get a sense of how I work.
My greatest strengths as a provider include my ability to create a non-judgmental, supportive space for clients, my client-centered approach, and my flexibility in adapting therapeutic techniques to meet each individual's needs. Being trilingual allows me to connect with a diverse range of clients, offering therapy in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English.
