CPT (CPT) Therapists in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada

I provide a supportive, client-centered space where you are heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes. My approach is compassionate, practical, and tailored to your unique needs, helping you navigate challenges with clarity and confidence. If you’re looking for a safe and flexible way to prioritize your mental well-being, I invite you to reach out and take the first step.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center is a practice built on the belief that healing takes time, safety, and depth. We are not a quick-fix model. We integrate neuroscience, attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and faith for those who desire it, so that change is not just behavioural but transformational. What sets us apart is our commitment to long-term relational work, nervous system stabilization, and whole-person care. We look at the patterns beneath the symptoms, the story beneath the survival, and we create a space where individuals, couples, and families can slow down enough to heal from the inside out. We are steady, clinically grounded, and rooted in the understanding that sustainable change happens when people feel safe enough to be fully seen.

If you're looking for someone to support you with better understanding yourself, I’m a warm, straightforward, and trustworthy therapist who shows up, human to human. I am here to meet you where you’re at and guide you on your journey, going step-by-step while offering you empathy and validation along the way. Whether you're experiencing difficulties with your relationships, emotional regulation skills, or feeling stuck day-to-day, I hope to create a safe space where we can explore parts of yourself, while also acknowledging the difficulties present in your life. I am passionate about supporting and advocating for disabled, BIPOC, and 2sLGBTQIA+ clients. If you want to talk but are unsure of who to turn to, I hope that I can be the person you'd feel safe to approach for a chat. Let's have an open and honest dialogue where we can both freely express our authentic selves, together.

Richmond, British Columbia is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities outside of Asia — with Chinese Canadians comprising a significant majority of the population and Mandarin and Cantonese widely spoken — creating a therapy community where demand for Chinese-language and culturally competent therapists far exceeds available supply. The city's proximity to Vancouver International Airport and its role as a gateway community for recent immigrants from Hong Kong, mainland China, and Taiwan shapes a therapy landscape particularly attuned to immigration stress, cross-cultural family dynamics, and the identity challenges of first-generation residents. Richmond Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community that is increasingly building capacity in Chinese-language care. Help-seeking stigma in some East Asian communities remains a significant barrier, and many therapists in Richmond invest considerable clinical energy in normalizing therapy as part of their work.
