You Deserve Safety, Healing, and a Life That Feels Like Yours Again
Hello, I'm Evelyn (she/her) - a mental health social worker specialising in Domestic and Family Violence (DFV) counselling, trauma recovery, and therapy for complex mental-health issues.
​
My work is deeply rooted in lived experience. Having navigated my own mental-health challenges growing up, I understand how isolating and overwhelming trauma and emotional distress can feel, especially for those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
​
Today, I provide online, trauma-informed therapy in English and Vietnamese, supporting:
​
-
People recovering from domestic and family violence
-
Survivors of trauma, abuse, and adverse childhood experiences
-
Clients facing anxiety, depression, OCD, BPD, and emotional dysregulation
-
Young people (12–25), adults, and families wanting to rebuild safety and stability
-
Vietnamese community members seeking culturally safe, bilingual support
My approach is gentle, collaborative, and grounded in respect. I value building authentic connections, where you can speak openly without fear of judgment. Watching clients rediscover hope, confidence, and self-trust is what fuels my work every day.

Navigating Trauma with a Holistic & Compassionate Approach
With a Master’s degree and specialised training in trauma-informed therapy, my practice blends evidence-based strategies with a holistic understanding of the person-in-environment.
​
I support you to:
-
Understand your experiences within your family, culture, relationships, and environment
-
Explore the root causes of emotional distress
-
Build skills for emotional regulation, grounding, and self-compassion
-
Reprocess trauma safely and reconnect with your strengths
-
Rewrite unhelpful narratives that keep you stuck
I integrate practical tools such as grounding, mindfulness, reflective practices, and creative modalities, ensuring therapy meets you where you are. Every session prioritises safety, validation, and empowerment, helping you gradually rebuild trust in yourself and the world.
Nurturing Healing through Creative Therapy
In challenging sessions, I maintain calm, offering comfort and support. I incorporate creative healing techniques like art therapy and yoga, providing dynamic avenues for expression and healing.
​
If you're looking to understand yourself better, overcome past traumas, and cultivate a fulfilling life, I'm here to support you. Together, we can embark on a journey toward recovery and growth.

Supporting Professionals Through Trauma-Informed Social Work Supervision

Social work supervision plays a vital role in maintaining safe practice, self-reflection, and professional identity, especially for practitioners working in complex spaces like DFV, youth mental health, and child protection.
​
I provide supervision that is:
-
Reflective — creating space to examine practice, ethics, and emotional impact
-
Supportive — assisting with debriefing, boundaries, and well-being
-
Practical — offering guidance on assessments, risk management, and case formulation
-
Career-focused — helping you gain clarity on pathways, transitions, and professional goals
With extensive experience across youth mental health, DFV, child protection, and working with families, I tailor supervision to your evolving needs and regularly review goals to ensure growth and confidence.
​
Low Cost Supervision for Social Work Students & Graduates
I offer affordable supervision for social work students and new graduates experiencing financial hardship.
Support includes help with placement challenges, reflective practice, job search preparation, and transitioning into the workforce.
