About me

My practice
My private Practice, KOOL C.A.R.E. Therapy, is in Ellenbrook, WA. We are a family counselling practice with a substantial focus on Interplay Therapy. As the name indicates, Compassion, Attachment, Reconnection and Empathy form the foundation of my therapy method. I believe that relationship breakdown happens between more than one individual. However, most child-based therapies only involve the child. Therefore, I based my therapy on the interactions between the parent(s) and child(ren) through play-based interaction. This makes me different from most therapists in my area. I have an outstanding playroom in the heart of Ellenbrook.

I also deal with various other family-based mental health problems in my counselling space. I have a military background and a deep understanding of veterans and FIFO-related family issues. As an immigrant, I understand immigration's pressures on the family and have a deep knowledge of immigration-related mental health-related issues. At KOOL C.A.R.E. Therapy, I have vast experience in dealing with family planning, trauma, anxiety, depression, school refusal, family violence, anger management, and performance-related issues. I can assist individuals of all ages and do face-to-face, online, telephone, and walk-and-talk therapy.
