Approach
Pei-Pei is family-centred and trauma-informed. She knows reaching out for help isn’t always easy, and she works closely with families so their priorities guide therapy goals. She makes sure home practice (if any) fits around real life, not the other way round. She’s down to earth, values genuine connection, and loves celebrating the small wins along the way. She wants clients and families to feel comfortable being honest with her, whether that’s asking difficult questions, sharing a win, a frustration, or ‘we didn’t get to practice this week.’
Languages
Pei-Pei provides sessions in English, Mandarin and Taiwanese.
A little about Pei-Pei
When not at work, Pei-Pei is usually hiking, walking her dog, or rearranging furniture (again). Her favourite moments are with her young daughter and family, a good book, fresh nails, or cooking with friends. She’s also the unofficial invite designer for every get-together and a prolific meme sender.
