Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. Truth and courage aren’t always comfortable, but they’re never weakness.

My Approach
Congratulations on taking the first step in prioritizing you and your mental health. My name is Shirley (she/her) and I believe in the power of vulnerability to bring about change. Life can be messy and confusing at times, and we’re not supposed to go it alone. You deserve to feel supported, and I hope to help you find what you’re looking for, whether that’s clarity, understanding, hope, wellness, healing, or growth. It may even be all of those! Ultimately, I hope you will feel seen and heard through your time of struggle.

I’m passionate about working with individuals (ages 16+) from all walks of life, and especially BIPOC. My lived experience as a second generation Chinese-Canadian lends much empathy and insight to cultural challenges that may impact many facets of our lives. It would be an honour to unpack those pieces alongside you.

To ensure our sessions meet your needs and recognizes your uniqueness, my therapy approach is goal-oriented and tailored to who you are. You can expect to gain new perspectives, feel empowered, and foster healthier relationships with yourself and others. If you choose to work with me, our sessions will likely be a blend of laughter, tears, science, skill-building, accountability, and sprinkles of profanity. Come as you are and let’s figure out the next steps together!
