Familiar with the challenges of working in demanding work environments and managing complex teams, Cecilia has expertise in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).  EMDR is a form of psychotherapy that was developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s for the treatment of traumatic memories and related psychological symptoms.

Cecilia is passionate about providing psychological support for diverse individuals and groups to rebalance their lives towards healthy changes. She has trained to help clients with diverse needs, especially those with traumatic experiences, to learn to process their overwhelming emotions. Cecilia offers a safe and confidential space to understand the client’s struggles, and together, they will explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, as well as learn how to handle hardships while moving towards a richer and more meaningful life.

Each session provides emotional support but also has a mission to set treatment plans collaboratively as a team. As a Master of counselling graduate of Monash University, Cecilia uses her expertise to combine EMDR with counselling therapy methods best suited to the client’s needs. These methods include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT),  Emotional Focus Therapy (EFT), Internal Family System Therapy (IFS), and Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR).

The Chinese version of Cecilia’s Bio

心理治療師

我們很常問別人，最近好嗎？

但你還記得上次何時問自己好不好？

每個人都在自己的生命歷程中努力，而所謂的自我往往被環境或他人的期望所拘束，我 們經常忘記甚至需要隱藏最真實的自己。每次的會談，就是一個學習跟自己相處的旅程 ，在這個安全的空間裡，我們好好關心自己，放心地探索自己的情緒及經驗，跟自己做 最親密的對話。很多時候，當發現自己迷惘受困於濃霧裡，諮商就像是一個共行的好夥 伴，在身旁提醒你要相信自己的能力，並盡力喚醒你內在的光，讓這樣的光引領你選擇 對你而言是正確的道路，再度享受生命本有的美好。

我專長於為焦慮症 、抑鬱症 、心理創傷 、適應困難 、人際關係等問題困擾的人士提供 最適合的療法，整合包括認知行為療法(CBT)、接受與承諾療法(ACT)、情緒取向治療 (EFT) 、眼動療法(EMDR) 、內在家庭系統療法(IFS)及葛文(Gottman)伴侶療法等， 

協助情緒調節、改善壓力管理並進一步於情緒深層找出問題的根源，提升自我的復原力 以面對過去的創傷及未來的挑戰。除了一般成人之外，數年來與特殊兒童族群的緣分， 讓我長期關心家庭議題，協助支持特殊兒童家長的調適與親職教育。
