My Therapeutic Journey

“When I first met Xinyi in mid-2019, I was seeking support and coaching for depression. I remember clearly that I was very withdrawn, and could not speak much during our first session; it was as though I had lost my voice and I just wanted to hide or sink into the chair. At that point, I was experiencing many negative events concurrently, and the trauma was amplified to the point where my will to live and confidence were depleted. I also struggled with anxiety, eating disorder, sleeping difficulties and self-harm. I felt I had completely lost my direction in life and was fearful of waking up every day. 

Xinyi helped me regain my voice and lower the fear of being alive in me. This whole journey of adulting has been really challenging and I am grateful to Xinyi for walking me through it step by step. 

She taught me how to present and carry myself so that my voice can be projected, and this helped me to slowly regain confidence in myself. She taught me how to set routines and rediscover my interests and I am now able to set goals and find joy in my hobbies. She equipped me with various ways to cope with stress and has always been patient to listen to all my issues, slowly going through them with me. She made sessions feel so easy that they feel like a catch-up session with a friend rather than a formal therapy session. I don’t know where I would be now if not for her, and this bond is one thing that I really hold close to my heart.

It has been 3 years since I first met Xinyi, and I am glad to be able to journey my life with her. Being able to speak now is still a miracle to me each day, and I really treasure my voice now, much more than before. She watched me grow over the years and there have certainly been tremendous, positive changes in my life.

I look forward to growing further with her step by step, as I progress to different phases in my life. This partnership is nothing short of great and Xinyi is the most patient person in my life. Xinyi is one big pillar of support to me that I will never forget. She is reliable, amiable, and always smiling to welcome her clients to sessions. Thank you for being a part of my life.”
