Hi thanks for visiting and getting introduced to how we might work together!
I am an experienced and specialist relationship counsellor and psychotherapist with 15 years of clinical experience. My work with individuals, couples and families provides a safe, respectful, ethical space to explore issues and co-create change.
The work of therapy is not an easy path but worth exploring and necessary, if we want to live responsively rather than reactively. We do not have to wait for a "crisis" to get started with therapy either, though often, some kind of stressful experience may bring clients to therapy. Studies show that people often wait too long before seeking therapy. Not surprisingly, some may feel despondent when things do not seem to turn around fast enough when they come for therapy.
Habits of mind and emotions developed over time and therefore, will take some time to unlearn.
Being aware or sensing you may be at the edge of something even if it's not clear yet is often a good time to seek therapy and self-growth. I also use a Focusing-oriented approach that can help with your deep listening process.
You may be vaguely aware that something is in the way of you feeling fine or you're noticing repetitive cycles of thought and emotions. Yet, you can't seem to step back and see the larger picture of what's going on. Some of us tend to ignore body-awareness and the mind will often protect us "going there." Yet there is an implicit inner knowing that can become clearer of we take some time with it. Most of us want to avoid pain and fear more trauma. Doing the healing journey with a trained companion will help.
There's life within that wants to be lived. A river of life that's a natural process that wants to flow again whatever may have stopped its flow. Together, we can create the space and make room for it to become clearer, and let you sense into it, how to work with it and how to move forward.
Warmly,
Yimfong Voon

What brings people to therapy?
Many people seek counselling for many reasons including:
- Relationship stress ~ in the home or at work ~ can affect your quality of life.
- Grief and loss due to bereavement, relationship breakups, chronic illness and job loss.
- Unprocessed multiple losses can sometimes complicate your current loss and grieving.
- Feeling "stuck" and unable to move towards what wants to be alive.
- Difficult life transition issues can bring up incomplete processes from previous lived experiences.
Change is a process.....it needs safe, respectful, ethical and non-judgemental company to explore what kind of life is wanted. And what is needed for it to happen. Next steps reveal themselves if we give some time and space to a deeper listening within. Often, being in the therapeutic company of a trained and experienced professional can be helpful to the process. Finding the right fit therapist is a crucial part of the therapeutic process. While therapy has been called the "talking cure" for good reason, it creates the space for deep listening within and between two humans.
