“I started seeing Xinyi in 2021 for anxiety, major depression, active suicidal thoughts, low self-esteem/confidence, and social anxiety. I was referred by a friend who realised I was struggling with these issues after a suicide attempt.

Therapy has helped me sort through some of my mental hurdles through shifting perspectives and thinking more rationally. In ways more than one, it has provided me with alternatives in what originally seemed like a hopeless scenario. Now, I feel that I can better cope with social pressures as well as stressful situations.

Looking to the future, I hope to continue this journey together towards bettering myself as a person, understanding myself and formulating my voice and identity. While overcoming my mental health issues is no easy feat, I hope to become a little better than yesterday, one step at a time.”
