Clinical Psychologist in Carlton Melbourne

I am a registered clinical psychologist who is fluent in multiple languages (Mandarin, Cantonese, Hakka and English). I provide psychological services to support the wellbeing of individuals over 17 years of age in Melbourne. I see clients at my consulting rooms in Carlton and also via telehealth.

I am down-to-earth and have a warm, thoughtful and non-judgemental approach. My clients appreciate that I provide an empowering and assuring presence in their journey of figuring out what is going on in their life and carving the path to a more meaningful and authentic future.

I have worked with individuals with various concerns across different life stages, in public mental health and private practice. I am a LGBTQIA+ aware and affirmative clinician. My personal connections to the LGBTQIA+ community help me appreciate the particular challenges faced by individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+. It is a privilege for me to work in this space.

I started my journey in psychology about fifteen years ago, after an extensive career in the finance and education sectors. I also have firsthand experience of the joys and difficulties as a migrant to a different culture as an adult. I am hence very grateful for the rich life experience I could bring into the therapy room and the opportunities to walk with clients as they manage challenges that are overwhelming.

As a Clinical Psychologist, I believe meaningful change begins with understanding.

Throughout my work in both public mental health and private practice, I have seen that emotional difficulties rarely arise from a single event. Instead, they reflect the interaction between our life experiences, relationships, biology, environment and the ways we've learned to cope.

My role is not simply to reduce symptoms, but to help clients make sense of these patterns and develop practical, sustainable ways of moving forward.

Whether someone is navigating anxiety, depression, trauma or bipolar disorder, I aim to provide a therapeutic space that is compassionate, collaborative and grounded in evidence.
