About Me
I grew up in Hong Kong and Canada, and have been in the Bay Area since 1997. I am fluent in English, Cantonese, and conversational Mandarin. I help my clients with my bilingual and multicultural experiences.
“YEEGA” (when pronounced in Cantonese) means here-and-now, with a focus in the present moment. As the name implies, the core values and mission of my work with clients emphasizes and focuses on current issues and goals, using a strength-based and solution-focused approach, and teaches clients helpful life skills and mindfulness in order to continue a life journey that is meaningful and fulfilling.
