Claire grew up in Taiwan in a family shaped by traditional Asian values, where love was often expressed through responsibility, sacrifice, and caring for others. After moving to Canada as a teenager, she experienced the challenge of navigating different cultural expectations while trying to understand her own identity. These experiences helped Claire understand that the desire to belong can sometimes lead people to silence their emotions or disconnect from their needs. Claire believes therapy can be a space to explore these patterns with compassion, helping clients reconnect with themselves and with the people who matter to them. 

Claire works with individuals navigating cultural identity, life transitions, trauma, anxiety, and relational challenges. Claire also supports couples and families experiencing conflict or emotional distance, and has helped many adult children reconnect with their parents by fostering understanding, repairing emotional injuries, and creating safer ways to communicate across generations. She is especially passionate about supporting immigrant and Asian families as they navigate cultural values, expectations, and evolving relationships. Claire provides therapy in both English and Mandarin.
