Hi, I’m Jack, a Registered Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Family Counselling and Family Education and a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work. With 14 years of experience supporting adults, couples, families, and newcomers, I bring a compassionate, collaborative, and culturally responsive approach to therapy.

 

A key focus of my practice is supporting couples and individuals navigating relationship challenges. I work with couples experiencing communication difficulties, recurring conflict, emotional distance, trust concerns, major life transitions, and differences in expectations or needs. My goal is to help partners better understand the patterns within their relationship, strengthen emotional connection, and develop healthier ways of communicating and responding to one another.

 

As a PREPARE/ENRICH Certified Facilitator, I support dating, engaged, and married couples who would like to better understand their relationship strengths, growth areas, communication styles, expectations, and shared goals. PREPARE/ENRICH can be especially helpful for couples preparing for marriage, strengthening an existing relationship, or creating space for more intentional conversations about their future together.

 

I am also an Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) Trainer, with experience supporting individuals and communities in developing skills to recognize and respond to suicide-related concerns. This training has further strengthened my ability to work with clients experiencing emotional distress, crisis-related concerns, and complex life challenges with care, sensitivity, and a strong focus on safety.

 

My therapeutic approach integrates Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Informed Care. I tailor therapy to each person or couple’s unique experiences, values, culture, and relationship dynamics rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

Alongside couple and relationship therapy, I also support clients with stress, anxiety, emotional challenges, family conflict, trauma, addiction-related concerns, life transitions, and adjustment to life as a newcomer. My background includes nine years in community services and five years in supervisory roles, which has strengthened my understanding of the many social, cultural, and practical factors that can affect individual and family well-being.

Fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English, I am committed to creating a respectful and non-judgmental space where clients can feel heard, understood, and supported.

Whether you are preparing for marriage, feeling stuck in repeated conflict, hoping to reconnect with your partner, or simply wanting to understand your relationship more deeply, I hope to provide a space where meaningful conversations and positive change can begin.
