About Fang

Fang Liu is a PACFA counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anger and relationship struggles. She speaks English and Mandarin, and brings five years of clinical practice to conversations about mood, addiction and coping with life changes.

Fang uses person-centred and emotionally focused ways of working. Sessions aim to be respectful and compassionate. She tailors dialogue and plans to what each person needs rather than using one set approach for everyone.

Her experience includes supporting people living with ADHD and autism traits, bipolar disorder, depression, and effects of trauma and adverse childhood experiences. She also works with grief, intimacy concerns, parenting strain and first responder issues. Practical problem-solving and clearer communication are common goals in her work.

In sessions she draws on attachment ideas and cognitive approaches when helpful. That can mean looking at relationship patterns, shifting unhelpful thinking, or building skills to manage strong emotions like anger. Jungian ideas and motivational techniques may also inform exploration of meaning and motivation.

Fang invites people to talk about what feels most urgent and to set achievable goals. Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person. People who want to begin are asked to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current feelings and reactions. Online work with this approach can help unpack repeated relationship cycles and build new ways of connecting to oneself and others. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on active listening and helping the person lead the conversation; it helps people feel understood and seen while they explore stress, anger or grief.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Fang will discuss goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that match those needs. Together the person and Fang can try different methods and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, check the available session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow quieter check-ins during a work break, or avoid travel time. It also supports continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult to arrange. Ask about session length and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire to find what fits best.
