DMT Experience
My DMT journey began with children with special needs, including neurodivergent (AHDH, ASD... etc.), children in foster care, children's home, and orphanages. I have a broad experience with populations with all ages and different-abilities due to the landscapes of DMT practices in Taiwan and New Zealand (Aotearoa). In the last decade, my main focus shifted to trauma, resilience, cultural identity, and holistic well-being within a person, family, community and beyond. As a DMT, I delved into my own adverse experiences, challenges in trusting, and emotional regulation, and continue to discover resources and tools for growth. Empowering and working alongside with people/community to foster embodiment, relational wellbeing, and hope is my passion.
Description

DMT individual/group work: Whenever possible, I work collaboratively with you (client/s) to establish goals and pathways. I bring in the kinaesthetic attunement in co-creating safe space to work together. I value the diversities and complexities of our wellbeing and needs- this may include cultural, gender/sexual, and other-abilities. Taking a humanistic approach, I incorporate mindfulness and somatic processes in building our therapeutic relationships, and informing therapy trajectory. Body, movement (micro to macro), mark-making, creative writing and other arts form might be used through creative arts therapy (CAT) lens to allow us breaking patterns and tapping into creative knowing. My advanced DMT skill sets include Ways of Seeing (trained with Dr Suzi Tortora), Trauma-informed Restorative Body psychotherapy (trained with Dr Amber Gray), and The BodyMind Approach (trained with Dr Helen Payne), to name a few.

DMT/CAT supervision: In general, I take a reflective approach where we emphasize on supervisee’s own reflections of their personal experience and clinical practices. I invite supervisees to name their needs and set intentions for our supervision journey. Collaborative, embodiment and creative models are incorporated, as well as verbal investigation and exploration of unconscious processes and therapeutic relationships. I thrive to bring out supervises' innate capacities and unique values in their own practice. This aligns with my clinical framework, where I integrate contemporary and cultural sensitive person-centered and psychodynamic frameworks as the base. I am committed to cultivate safe-ing, confidential, and supportive supervision where self-care, ethical and practical issues can be openly discussed. I love supporting students in training and professional therapists to flourish in the work they engage.
