Registered Clinical Counsellor #24637
With 8 years of experience in diverse community settings, Hong has supported children, youth, and families through various stages of growth and change. As a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), she is dedicated to creating a safe and compassionate space where clients feel truly understood and supported.
Rooted in Eastern culture and later shaped by her studies in Canada, she has come to understand both Eastern and Western perspectives. She understands the unique challenges that can come with navigating identity, change, and belonging. This lived experience has shaped her deep respect for cultural differences and the importance of honoring each person’s story.
She has a particular passion for working with autistic and neurodivergent individuals, supporting them in embracing their own ways of thinking, feeling, and being while building meaningful and fulfilling lives.
Her therapeutic approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and flexible, grounded in the belief that clients are the experts of their own lives. She integrates evidence-based modalities such as Play Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), adapting them to meet each person’s unique needs and goals.
For her, therapy is a warm journey of companionship. With a developmental psychology lens and genuine empathy, she walks alongside clients to explore the emotions, thoughts, and experiences that shape their lives. Whether navigating anxiety, mood difficulties, parenting stress, or life transitions, she is committed to helping clients discover inner strengths and opportunities for growth. She is also happy to provide counselling services in Mandarin and Cantonese, making support accessible and welcoming for clients who feel most comfortable in these languages.
在過去八年中，Hong有幸在社區環境中陪伴許多孩子、青少年和家庭走過成長的不同階段。作為一名心理諮詢師（RCC），她始終致力於為來訪者營造一個安心、溫暖的空間，讓他們能夠真切地感受到被理解與被支持。
她本科畢業於英屬哥倫比亞大學心理學專業，之後在多倫多大學深造並獲得發展心理學與教育方向的教育學碩士學位。這段學術歷程不僅賦予她堅實的理論基礎，也讓她對成長過程中的多樣性有更深刻的理解。她在東方文化中成長，後來在加拿大学習的經歷，讓她同時接觸並體會東西方的思維方式。這段跨文化旅程，使她更能理解文化適應與身份認同過程中的困惑與挑戰，並培養了她對每個生命故事獨特性的深切尊重。
她尤其專注於支持自閉症與神經多樣性群體，幫助他們在接納自身獨特思維與感受方式的同時，找到屬於自己的意義與幸福。
她的治療方法是協作式的、以優勢為基礎且靈活的，始終相信來訪者才是自己生命的專家。她整合了多種有實證支持的治療方法，包括遊戲治療、認知行為治療（CBT）、辯證行為治療（DBT）以及情緒取向的家庭治療（EFFT），並會根據每位來訪者的獨特需求與目標進行調整與應用。
對她來說，心理諮詢是一段溫暖的同行之旅。她結合專業的發展心理學視角與真誠的同理心，與來訪者一同探索那些影響情緒、想法和生活的重要時刻。無論是面對焦慮、情緒困擾、教養壓力還是人生轉折，她都致力於幫助來訪者發現內在的力量與成長的可能。她也很高興能以普通話和粵語提供心理諮詢服務，讓來訪者能夠在最熟悉、最舒適的語言環境中獲得支持。
