Crystal is a client-centred, patient, nurturing, non-judgemental, Registered Psychologist who offers face-to-face and online therapy for individuals aged 15 and above.

Crystal can deliver therapy in English and Cantonese. She is also a devoted Christian and welcomes clients who prefer to seek treatment from a psychologist with a shared faith and worldview.
Outside therapy sessions, Crystal creates YouTube videos about psychology treatment to the Cantonese-speaking population. Other times she enjoys engaging in social, physical and spiritual activities as these are important for the nourishment of her own health.
