Integrative Counselling

Counselling is a confidential, non-judgmental, collaborative, and relational process that helps individuals gain a deeper understanding of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, feel more equipped to cope with their challenges, and improve their overall sense of well-being.

Testimonials

"Dr Yung-Chieh Huang is an outstanding couples therapist. She listens effectively, helps us breakdown issues, enables productive communication, and shows empathy and professionalism always. We value how she's helped us grow."

"I was referred to Chieh after a consultation. I had found that she was most likely the right fit to help me to deal with my problematic issue, within the first session she managed to suggest an out of the box solution that is pretty simple but I never thought about to help me deal with my problem. I had following sessions where we talked about other issues I had and once again she offered simple effective solutions to help me deal with those problems – after all the sessions were complete, I've had time to reflect and continue to implement these solutions which are still very effective.

I can honestly say if I had not spoken to her to take these sessions my problem would have continued and that was not an option, it needed to be dealt with head on especially at the point where my life is right now, I thank her sincerely for helping me."

"I have been seeing Dr Huang for over a year and she has been incredibly helpful. She was able to create a warm and safe environment in our sessions helping me gain the trust and confidence to open up and explore more difficult topics. I was particularly skeptical at the outset of being able to connect over virtual sessions, but Dr Huang's calm and friendly approach makes this a success. Through our sessions I have opened up about things that I have not previously delved into with other therapists and I am so grateful for her guidance on this journey. I highly recommend her and offer my sincere thanks for all her help."

"I can’t say enough positive things about Chieh. From my first session with her I felt very much at ease and she made me feel unguarded and able to speak about issues that I had not previously spoken about. Her personable approach made me able to delve into myself and consider issues and solutions from a perspective that I had not previously considered. I highly recommend her as a therapist and am looking forward to working again with her very soon."

"Chieh has provided me with the best clinical supervision I have experienced in my career so far. Chieh has helped me to hone my skills of prioritisation and conflict resolution with colleagues and has helped me to process the vicarious trauma I have experienced through supporting homeless people in psychologically challenging situations. Chieh has also provided me with a lot of useful advice in the beginning of starting my new role, which really helped me to adjust to my new responsibilities with more confidence. I would highly recommend Chieh's psychological services to other professionals."

"I have been seeing Chieh for 6 months now and her counselling has made, and keeps making a big difference. We cover topics she identifies as relevant, but also gives the space to address anything I would like to cover. She always finds the right angle to debunk a situation, and the right questions to challenge any thinking patterns or behaviour, with patience, care and no judgement. Her sessions are one of the moments I look forward to the most every week."

"Since realising and accepting I needed to get some counselling due to various trauma in my life, I chose Dr Huang as my clinician because she had experience in a broad range of areas and approaches which I thought could work well for me. My choice was absolutely the right one as Dr Huang has helped me on a necessary mental health journey and given me real insights into myself which has been instrumental in dealing with the pressures of life.

Her sensitive and warm manner helped me feel at ease and explore some very difficult areas of my life, to gain a good understanding of my reactions. She has given me tools and techniques to help when I feel anxious or stressed, and how to reframe my thoughts and behaviour to enable me to have stronger connections with my loved ones. I can’t thank her enough for all her support and would recommend her very highly."

"I’ve been having sessions with Chieh for almost a year and in that time I have been provided with practical tools to understand more about myself and deal with myself in a kinder, healthier way. Chieh is a kind and compassionate listener and a pragmatic therapist, which is something I really appreciate. She provides me with actionable ways of addressing matters, of checking in with myself and making lasting positive change to my mental. This has not only had a positive impact on me but on those around me. I’m very grateful for my time with her."

"I have been engaging in peer supervision with Chieh since February 2023 for my private practice clients. Among Chieh's greatest strengths is her ability to foster a warm, inspiring and thoughtful environment. Her professionalism and ethically minded clinical framework, resulting from her extensive experience working in a variety of settings, provides me with invaluable insight into the clients I bring to our sessions. She also has a good sense of humor, which is encouraging and contributes to my sense of confidence. Chieh walks beside me and I always feel safe and comfortable to express any thoughts, doubts or inner conflicts I might experience in my work with clients. I am grateful for the positive and empowering working relationship that we have built together over the years and I hope that it will continue for many years to come."

"Dr Huang is an extremely talented clinician. I feel listened to at every step. She's helped me work through some very complex memories. I always feel listened to and never judged. On a personal level, she's kind and has a warming presence. I cannot recommend her highly enough."

"Thank you again for a wonderful session last week. For your attention and insights at the end. For the questions that you asked."

"Thank you so so much for your amazing support to me and my mental health through the most difficult time in my career. I have felt a lot better now and things have improved massively since last time we spoke. I've got a lot stronger to cope with work stress and I've learnt to stand up for my self."

"I consider our time very valuable for me and there were many things we discussed which had a positive impact."

"I am very grateful for her support and wish her the best. She has helped me overcome this past challenge in my life."

"Yung-Chieh is a brilliant therapist. She's genuinely empathetic, and is a genius at helping us get to the root of issues. She provides excellent counselling, helps us understand our feelings and behaviours, and has always been supportive of us throughout our journey. We have benefitted tremendously from working with Yung-Chieh, and never hesitate to recommend her to others."

"Working with Dr Huang has been a transformative experience. She provides a truly non-judgmental space where I feel comfortable enough to be vulnerable and discuss sensitive personal issues. Her insights have been invaluable, bringing clarity and making difficult situations feel manageable. I've grown immensely, feeling more confident in my ability to navigate life's challenges."

"I was hesitant to try therapy again but can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my adult years thanks to Dr Huang. I have been seeing Chieh for over a year now and she has been nothing but patient and understanding whilst I worked through years of trauma. She provided a safe space, listened with empathy while I tried to make sense of things, never pushed too hard, and encouraged me protect my boundaries in situations that felt impossible.

Thank you for helping me hold on to the light."

"I started working with Dr. Yung Chieh Huang when moving to new country with a young kid was taking a toll on me. I was constantly undermining myself in all the roles of my life, be it as a mother, home manager, employee everything. Every aspect of my thinking was leading me to worst possible scenario and I wasn't able to focus on positive or alternative aspect of the situation which Dr. patiently inculcated in me. I saw an immense change, confidence in my ability and trying to look for optimism or opportunity in every thing. I learnt to be calm and started loving myself. I became clear on my priorities and this newfound calmness and confident even got me a promotion at workplace.

She is an extremely kind soul and I am happy that she is doing this fantastic job of helping people. She made me uncover my side which I never knew existed. I truly appreciate all her help in making me overall a better individual. I wish her all the best and would 100% recommend to have one session with her no matter what you are going through or how hard it feels to defeat it."

"Working with Dr. Yung-Chieh Huang has been one of the most important parts of my past year. I started therapy when I was feeling completely overwhelmed - trying to hold everything together at work while managing a lot emotionally in the background. I often felt stuck in patterns I didn’t fully understand, just pushing through without really knowing how to take care of myself.

What made a big difference was how safe and calm it felt talking to her. She really listened and met me where I was - some sessions we worked through practical things, other times we went deeper into old patterns and emotions I hadn’t looked at before. I never felt judged, just gently supported and understood.

Over time, I’ve started to notice small but real shifts. I’m learning to slow down a bit, to notice what’s going on internally instead of reacting out of habit. It hasn’t been a quick fix, but I feel more grounded and more able to be kind to myself - even on the harder days.

I’m really grateful for her support, especially during a chapter where I felt so much pressure but didn’t quite know how to give myself space. I’d truly recommend her to anyone feeling like they’re carrying too much on their own."
