ABOUT ALICE LAM
I enjoy highlighting and working with clients on their relationships, between couples, families, work arena, and most importantly with the Self. It is this relationship with self that shapes our interaction with others, and often breaks us down, so I spend a lot of focus exploring The Self, clearing past traumas, helping to rekindle one’s self-worth from distortions, setting the core healthy to love and face future challenges again.
Hello, I’m Alice.
I believe in counselling. It is a very effective tool in enriching our life journey. I have witnessed how it changes people’s lives and feel very proud to be able to facilitate that. This joy and contentment is what keeps me motivated and passionate as a counsellor.
I work on a broad spectrum of clients including depression, anxiety, trauma, personality issues. I enjoy most highlighting for them and working with them on their relationships, between couples, families, work arena, and most importantly with the Self. It is this relationship with self that shapes our interaction with others, and often breaks us down, so I spend a lot of focus exploring The Self, clearing past traumas, helping to rekindle one’s self-worth from distortions, setting the core healthy to love and face future challenges again.
I trust we are all capable of healing ourselves, only we may use repeatedly the ineffective methods and fail to find the exit to change. We all have blind spots that block us, or sometimes we distort the truth around us. As counselling professionals, we help reflect so you can see. It gives me great pleasure to hold that light for you.
I employ eclectic approach in my counselling, integrating CBT, EFT, Hypnotism, Satir, EMDR, with a base in Person Centred Theory.
Before working as a counsellor, I held senior management positions in the marketing sector in the commercial world. That coaching and mentoring background helped immensely in my understanding of client’s life challenges, making our sessions more dynamic and effective.
I also spent quite some years working as a volunteer in the areas of suicide prevention and baby care. These volunteering experiences also provided significant inspiration to me to the path of Counselling.
I work well with both English and Cantonese languages, reasonable with Mandarin. I believe the more people understand and accept Counselling, the more HK will be a happier place.
