Introduction

   

“We are all broken people living in a broken world!” – A statement once made by my teacher of Counseling always reminds me that I have to accept and embrace every hurting, perplexed soul I ever meet.

From the teaching profession to the training, sales and marketing positions in the business field, I have got precious life experiences getting to know deeply the challenges people do face in different life stages and circumstances. Years ago, I then acquired an MA degree in Professional Counseling and other related qualifications in response to my inner passion. And the studies in Play (and Creative Arts) Therapy have broadened my horizons that I could integrate the talking cure with the non-verbal focus approach to work through the consciousness and unconsciousness, thoughts and emotions in humans helping lots of children, adolescents, adults and elders throughout the years.

Since 2012, not only have I been working in my private practice as a Professional Psychological Counselor, Play n Creative Arts Therapist and Clinical Supervisor, but I also provide individual and group counseling, workshops and staff trainings to schools and organizations. Furthermore, I have been invited to teach Basic Counseling Skills, Personal Growth & Self-Care, Developmental Psychology, Counseling Theories (Psychotherapies) and Youth Counseling in Practice in the courses coordinated by other centers.

Mission:

To walk as a fellow-traveler with people facing emotional, mental and/or behavioral disturbances through the counseling process of helping them help themselves in which various psychotherapies are applied to attend to their issues, help them undergo self-discoveries, get in touch with their inner thoughts, feelings and struggles gradually, make their best possible choices upon their values and realize change, and that they could ultimately walk through the journey of growth and live a healthier and freer life in the end!
