Benefits of Online Therapy

Are you feeling anxious, burnt out, or stuck, and wondering if online therapy could help? Whether you’re juggling responsibilities or quietly struggling to keep it together, therapy can offer a space to slow down, reflect, and get support that actually fits your life.

As an Asian Canadian and a mother, I understand how family, culture, and everyday demands can push our own needs aside. Therapy with me gives you space to feel heard and explore what's preventing you from being where you want to be.

Why Choose Online Therapy?

• Convenience: Attend sessions from home, work, or wherever you feel most comfortable.
• Flexibility: Book sessions around your existing commitments and routines.
• Privacy: Talk from a familiar space without worrying about who you might run into in a waiting room.
• Choice: Find a therapist who's the right fit for you, not just the one closest to you.

What to Expect from Online Sessions

• Sessions take place over Google Meet video, with no software or app to install.
• Sessions are 50 minutes, held weekly or biweekly depending on your needs.

FAQs About Online Therapy

Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person sessions?
For most concerns, yes. Research suggests that online therapy can be as effective as in-person sessions, especially when there’s a strong therapeutic relationship and clear goals. See the research

Do I need to be in Toronto to work with you?
Nope! I work with adults anywhere in Ontario, including Toronto, Ottawa, London, Richmond Hill, and smaller towns and rural communities.

What if I’m not sure if therapy is right for me?
That’s okay. I offer a free 20-minute phone consult so you can ask questions and see if we’re a good fit, with no pressure or commitment.

What I Help With

• Anxiety, overthinking, and worry, including social anxiety, health anxiety, and OCD
• Burnout, stress, and work or school pressure
• Low mood, self-doubt, and imposter feelings
• Relationship stress, breakups, and interpersonal challenges
• Life transitions: career changes, new parenthood and postpartum challenges, grief, chronic pain, or illness
• Feeling disconnected or “not like yourself”
• Building self-esteem and personal growth

If something’s been weighing on you—even if you’re not sure what to call it, therapy can help you sort through it at your own pace.

My Approach to Therapy

I provide a calm, steady presence and a space where you can speak freely, without judgment, pressure, or expectation. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your experiences and goals.

I draw on evidence-based approaches like CBT, mindfulness, ACT, and DBT, using a trauma-informed lens while considering your cultural background, life story, and attachment style. I believe many adult struggles, especially in relationships, are shaped by early experiences, and understanding these patterns can help make sense of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours today.

I also offer a culturally responsive space, recognizing how identity, family, and cultural values shape how we cope and how we heal. We’ll go at your pace and focus on lasting change that fits your values.

A Bit About Me

As a therapist (and human being), I know the value of slowing down and reconnecting with what matters. I enjoy quiet moments with a cup of tea, trying new foods, travelling with family, staying active, and winding down with a good show or movie. These little joys help keep me grounded, and I encourage clients to find what grounds them too.
