Empathetic. Authentic. Transformative.

About Me

I’m Lihua Shao, a Registered Professional Counsellor (MPCC provisional with CPCA; RTCc with ACCT). My work is guided by ethical practice, ongoing learning, and a passion for helping people reconnect with their strengths.

​

My Work

I support individuals, couples, families, and groups with challenges such as:

• Relationships and connection
• Stress, anxiety, and burnout
• Depression, low mood, and emotional numbness
• Trauma and nervous system dysregulation
• Parenting and family transitions
• Identity, self-worth, and meaning
• Grief and loss (not only death)
• Life transitions and uncertainty
• Boundaries, assertiveness, and self-trust
• Desire for growth and self-understanding

​

My Philosophy

Counselling is not about “fixing” what is broken, but about creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore, understand, and reconnect with yourself. We work collaboratively, respecting your pace and experiences, while I provide guidance and strategies tailored to you.

​

My Vision

I aim to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered. Together, we focus on reconnecting with your strengths, building resilience, and discovering your full potential, so each session supports clarity, wellbeing, and authentic living.
