Welcome to MyBeing Counselling

🌿 Hi there...

You don’t have to keep holding everything together on your own.

You might look like you’re coping. Responsible. Capable. The one others rely on. But inside, you may feel different, unsure where you fit, or quietly disconnected from yourself. There might be a part of you that feels unseen, uncertain, or out of place. I hear that. I hear the quiet weight you carry, the moments when you wonder if anyone really understands, and the times you put on a brave face even when it feels exhausting. It’s okay to notice these feelings, and you’re not alone. You don’t have to have everything figured out, and you don’t have to pretend you’re fine, it’s okay to just be here, noticing yourself and how you feel, exactly as you are.

🌱 Who I work with

You might have spent much of your life feeling slightly on the outside, as if everyone else received a guide to who they are and where they belong, and you somehow missed that part.

This isn’t always obvious. You may function well in life. Others might even see you as strong. But underneath, there can be a sense of not fully belonging.

You might relate to this if you:

• Are adopted, grew up between cultures, or had early life experiences that shaped how safe relationships feel

• Identify as neurodiverse, or experience the world more intensely or differently

• Have spent years adapting, keeping the peace, achieving, reading the room, or being who others need

• Struggle with identity or feel unsure who you are underneath coping patterns

• Are very hard on yourself when things go wrong

• Find relationships confusing, wanting closeness but also feeling unseen or emotionally distant

• Often feel “too sensitive,” “too much,” or somehow not enough
  

You might experience emotions as overwhelming, or feel numb and disconnected at times. There may be sadness, shame, loneliness, or grief, for the childhood you didn’t have, the connection you longed for, or the sense of belonging you’ve been searching for.

Often, what you’re really longing for is not just relief from anxiety or low mood, but a stronger sense of self, to feel more at home in your own mind and body, and to live in a way that feels true to you, not just shaped by survival or expectations.

💛 How I can help

I offer person-centred counselling, which begins with you, your experiences, your pace, and what matters most. I provide a warm, accepting, and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and explore your thoughts and feelings safely. I won’t tell you who to be or what decisions to make. Together, we work to help you understand yourself more clearly and trust your inner experience.

MyBeing Counselling is shaped not only by professional training but also by lived experience. I was born in Hong Kong and grew up in England through adoption, so I understand what it can feel like to live between identities and carry an unspoken sense of difference. I also identify as neurodiverse, which has deepened my appreciation of how varied our inner worlds can be.

In therapy, we gently explore patterns, emotions, and beliefs that developed as ways of coping with earlier experiences. These patterns often made sense at the time but may now leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of yourself. By slowing down and approaching your experiences with curiosity and compassion, new understanding can emerge.

When you feel truly heard and accepted, it often becomes easier to hear yourself. Over time, this can lead to:

• A stronger sense of identity

• Greater self-acceptance

• Improved emotional awareness

• Healthier boundaries in relationships
  
  

My role isn’t to change who you are, but to help you discover and trust who you already are beneath survival patterns and expectations.

🌼 Thinking about reaching out?

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to coping alone or putting others first.

You might wonder if your struggles are “serious enough.” You might worry you won’t know how to explain what’s wrong. You might even feel guilty for needing support. These feelings are very common, particularly for people who have spent much of their lives adapting quietly.

You don’t need perfect words or a clear story before starting. Therapy can be a place where we make sense of things together, at a pace that feels manageable. It’s okay if your experiences feel messy, confusing, or hard to describe, that’s often where the most meaningful work begins.

You deserve a space where your feelings are taken seriously, your sense of difference is respected, and your story matters.

If something here resonates with you, it may be a sign that now is the right time to explore support.

You don’t have to carry everything on your own anymore.
