Hi, I’m Matt.
Having grown up in a culturally diverse group of friends in China and Malaysia, and as a member of the neurodivergent community, I love helping people navigate their differences. 


I believe therapy is a place where real change can happen. Over more than 12 years in my work as a psychotherapist, my clients have found hope in the face of suicidal impulses or emotional dysregulation, improved test scores by reducing anxiety, solved workplace issues and achieved promotions, restored delight in their marriages, navigated life and relationships in the context of neurodivergence, and faced past trauma safely in order to experience freedom and joy in the present.


I am passionate about serving anybody who yearns to grow through adversity, better understand themselves, and be understood by others. I especially enjoy depth psychology approaches and can tailor a psychodynamic approach that fits each client’s unique needs.

I am also trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy.
My passport country is the USA, which is also where I maintain licenses as a Florida Registered Nurse and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I am also a qualified supervisor in the state of Florida for Mental Health Counselors. Locally, I am registered with the Psychotherapy Society of Hong Kong as well as the Hong Kong Professional Counselling Association.


I'm honored to walk with you as a counselor and guide as you seek relief from crisis or long-term characterological change.
