Psycholgocial Counselling

As a familiar Chinese saying goes, “heart problems require heart medicine”. Psychological counseling can be seen as a kind of “heart medicine” through which the counselor helps her clients deal with problems with their emotions and psychological functioning, dating and marriage, family relationships, as well as other relationships

Psychological Counselor and Family Therapist Mrs. Laurene Man is professionally trained and equipped with in- depth knowledge and understanding in areas of personal emotions, inner psychology, dating, marriage, intimate relationships, family relationships, personal growth and family development. Drawing on her rich experience from her 34 years of counselling practice, she will help you tackle the factors which contributed to your problems, help you find alternative ways of living and relating, and gradually lead you toward a happier life and develop more satisfying relationships.

Mrs. Man will meet with you regularly, about once every 1-2 weeks, most often for one hour every time, and discuss with you about your problems. In the case of relationship problems, she may discuss with you about seeing both parties together in joint interviews. The total number of counselling sessions will depend on the nature of your issues and on your need. For your reference, the average number of sessions most previous clients used ranged from 3-10 sessions but there are variations among different clients.

The meetings will be conducted in the quiet and very private counselling room and all information shared will be kept strictly confidential. The counselor will patiently listen and understand your feelings, ask suitable questions as she listens, and slowly guide you to think about your problems from different angles. She will help you get in touch with your inner world and those of your loved ones, and may encourage you to try new ways of behaving, new ways of living your life and relating with other people. No one enjoys talking about his/her/their problems, but the counselor will provide you the needed support and make it easier for you to do so at a suitable and comfortable pace.
