Ling works to provide a safe, empathic and creative space for young people to feel heard and accepted. Worrying situations in the present are most likely to have originated in past experiences, she works collaboratively with young people to understand these experiences, and to explore current difficulties which might be bothering them. Her goal is to help young people feel more empowered in their daily lives, increase self-esteem and confidence, and manage difficult feelings.

Ling is a HCPC registered Art Psychotherapist who specialises in child and adolescent mental health. Her training is underpinned by psychodynamic and psychoanalytic theory but offers a flexible approach to suit the young person’s needs. Areas of Psychotherapy that she works with include anger management, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and trauma.

Ling is able to offer sessions in both English and Cantonese.
