She speaks English and Cantonese and works with adults who want practical support for life changes and emotional pain.

Rebecca uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment therapy to clarify values and purpose, and attachment-based ideas to improve how people relate to others.
Background and approach
Sessions are aimed at small, useful steps rather than long lectures. Her background includes many years providing individual and group psychotherapy and grief counseling. Rebecca has worked with people recovering from trauma and those handling parenting stress, caregiving strain, or the fallout of relationship endings.
She favors a strengths-based, person-centered style that focuses on goals the client chooses. In practice she helps people build coping skills for sleep, eating, anger, and addiction issues. She also addresses career concerns, low self-esteem, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Rebecca describes therapy as a collaborative process where clients set the pace. Clients can expect clear strategies, mindfulness exercises, and tools to manage difficult moments. Rebecca values steady progress and practical change over quick fixes.
Her long experience informs a calm, steady approach to everyday problems and complex emotional histories.
How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choose actions that match their values to move forward. This approach can help with depression, anxiety, and life transitions by clarifying what matters and setting small behavior goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, then practicing new responses. It is useful for anxiety, sleep and eating issues, and managing mood by teaching concrete skills to change reactions.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current trust and connection, and it supports rebuilding safer ways of relating to others. This work can help with relationship stress, abandonment concerns, and feelings of isolation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help clients decide what to try first based on their goals, needs, and what feels comfortable. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time to fit progress and preferences.
Online sessions can happen by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be a lower-bandwidth choice, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options give flexibility so therapy can continue around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
