Hi, I’m Joyce Chan. I’m a Clinical Psychologist with more than 10 years of experience. I’ve worked in hospitals, non-profits, and therapy teams in Australia and Hong Kong.
My focus is on supporting adults with emotional and health-related challenges. I provide therapy in both English and Cantonese.
I believe that every person has the ability to heal and grow. My work is grounded in respect, evidence-based care, and cultural understanding.
Therapeutic Focus
I help adults with a range of concerns, including:
-
Anxiety, panic, OCD, and health anxiety
-
Low mood and emotion regulation, including depression
-
Stress and life changes, like burnout and transitions
-
Self-esteem and relationships, including identity and social stress
-
Chronic illness and pain, including cancer support
-
Addiction and substance use
-
Sleep issues, such as insomnia
Therapeutic Approach
I offer a kind, practical, and collaborative space. I adjust my approach to suit your goals and what feels safe and useful for you.
I draw from several evidence-based therapies:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
-
Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
-
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Together, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back, and support you to move forward at a pace that feels right.
Booking Options
I offer sessions both in person and online, supporting clients in Sydney and internationally.
More About Me
I was born in Australia in a Chinese family. From a young age, I’ve valued cultural diversity. I moved overseas to better understand mental health needs in Asian communities. These experiences helped me connect with people from many walks of life.
I’ve also been active in the community through mother’s groups, church care, and youth mentoring — in Sydney, Hong Kong, and New York.
In my free time, I enjoy music, listening to health podcasts, and spending time with friends and family.
