I offer mindfulness supervision in Cantonese.
I have been working as a Clinical Psychologist in Hong Kong since 2004. My personal mindfulness practice began in 2006, and since then, I have shared mindfulness with the people I serve across various settings.
In 2013, I began my MBSR teacher training pathway with Jon Kabat-Zinn and Saki Santorelli at the UMass Center for Mindfulness (CFM). To deepen my understanding, I completed the one-year foundational training in teaching MBCT in 2018 through the Oxford Mindfulness Centre (OMC) and the Hong Kong Centre for Mindfulness (HKCFM). Over the past decade, I have offered mindfulness training and 8-week courses to diverse populations in workplaces, healthcare, higher education, law enforcement, correctional services, and the community.
I am deeply passionate about both practicing and teaching mindfulness, as I believe it is a transformative path towards self-discovery, well-being, inner peace, compassion, and wisdom. I am also a dedicated yoga practitioner and a registered yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance.
