WELCOME
I’m Bek, an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist who supports individuals navigating relationship challenges, cultural identity tensions, and emotional overwhelm. Throughout my career I have had the honour of sitting with people in some of life’s most vulnerable moments. Being with grief, loss, and uncertainty allowed me the privilege to hold space for pain, and deepened my belief in the importance of relationships, purpose, and connection in our lives. My work sits at the intersection of attachment, somatics, and relational therapy – grounded in the belief that sustainable change happens when insight is supported by nervous system awareness and embodied integration.
Areas I Specialise In
- Relationship challenges and repeating patterns
- Attachment and intimacy difficulties
- Bi-cultural and intergenerational dynamics
- Anxiety and emotional regulation
- Childhood trauma
- Life transitions and identity shifts
Who I Work Best With
As a therapist of Chinese-Vietnamese Australian background, I bring a culturally sensitive lens and I understand the tension many clients feel between cultural expectations and personal needs, especially when navigating identity, belonging, family roles, and bi-cultural or intergenerational dynamics.
My Clinical Philosophy
My approach is collaborative, body-aware, and culturally attuned. I integrate attachment theory, emotion-focused therapy, somatic work, and parts-based frameworks to support relational repair and deeper self-understanding.
Professional Background
Before training as a therapist, I worked as an oncology nurse and later in operational leadership roles. These experiences inform my capacity to sit with vulnerability, grief, and complexity, while understanding the pressures of leadership and performance-driven environments.
