“No two journeys are identical. Everyone deserves to be supported when they are struggling.”

Hello there —

I am Calvin, a trauma-informed, person-centered counsellor, psychotherapist, mental health professional and life coach, with experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds in residential, outpatient, schools and private practice settings in the United States, Hong Kong and now in the United Kingdom. I have developed an interest and a call to be a therapist during my university years. I want to help people find their voices. Being able to sit with clients when they are struggling and help them come to a greater understanding of themselves offer the best, most valuable and rewarding experiences of therapy. I am grateful to be able to do the work I do every day — I am eager to help you & journey together!

I believe…

  • Everyone deserves access to high-quality mental healthcare.

  • in a person-centered, flexible and pluralistic style to incorporate the unique strengths of every individual.

  • It is essential that my clients get personalized support, full transparency, and comfortability to help them optimize their inner potential to develop the psychological skills that can help overcome their painful thoughts and emotions and gain a greater understanding into what truly matters. Rather than do things the typical way, we’ve created a system designed around our clients’ needs.

I work with…

  • Depressed people who want to enjoy life

  • Anxious people and help them learn ways to cope without worrying

  • People who’ve experienced trauma and help them with living in the present and not the past

  • Couples with communication issues, infidelity challenges or those wanting to improve their connection

  • People who struggle with attachment issues in relationships and help them learn how to set healthy boundaries

*I have experiences of working with diverse groups of people with different backgrounds and occupations from children, teenagers to adults.
