PROFILE

Lucy Xing Liu

Counselling Psychologist, Counsellor, Psychotherapist

M.O. Counselling, PGD Counselling Psychology, B.Sc. Psychology

Hi, I’m Lucy! I support working professionals, entrepreneurs, parents and students in connecting with their emotions, exploring new perspectives and fostering inner harmony, enabling them to build better relationships with themselves and others.

I Offer Therapy:

To Adults and Pre-teens (10 and above)
In English and Mandarin.
In-Person (By Appointment Only)

My Areas of Expertise Include:

Attachment Trauma, Anxiety, Depression
Work & Study Stress Management
Transition & Adjustment Challenges in Third-Culture Individuals, Expats and Students
Parent-Child Relationship Challenges
Conflict Resolution (Corporate)
Leadership Behaviours & Relational Communication for Managers/ Entrepreneurs (Corporate)

My Background & Specialisation:

Having grown up as a third-culture child, I am deeply attuned to the emotional and relational challenges faced when adapting to new environments. The process of transition often leads individuals to overextend themselves, suppressing parts of their authentic selves in an effort to fit in or survive. My academic training and professional expertise in inner child work have allowed me to specialise in addressing attachment-related traumas, managing stress related to work and studies, and guiding third-culture individuals, expatriates, and students through the complexities of transition and adjustment. With a foundation rooted in empathy and compassion, my integrative approach helps clients struggling with anxiety and depression to better understand their emotional needs, heal internal conflicts, and cultivate inner harmony.

My Approach in Therapy:

In therapy, I prioritise cultivating a genuine and authentic therapeutic relationship with you, recognising it as the foundation for meaningful healing and achieving your treatment goals. I am committed to creating a non-directive and non-judgmental environment that nurtures emotional freedom, creativity, and comfort. Your input is essential to me, as it allows us to collaboratively adapt the process to best meet your unique needs.

My approach is rooted in Person-Centred Therapy and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), emphasising the importance of connecting with your emotions and innate capacity for resilience, healing, and self-compassion. I often integrate inner child work techniques to help you explore and heal unresolved experiences, transforming emotional pain into empowerment and deeper connection. Additionally, I draw on methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to tailor our work to your individual journey and goals.

My Promises:

Unconditional Positive Regard:
My therapeutic approach is grounded in providing unwavering acceptance and understanding, offering a non-judgmental and empathetic space where you can feel genuinely heard and valued.
Confidentiality and Trust:
I will create a safe, confidential space where you can express yourself freely, knowing that everything shared will remain private and respected.
