About me

My name is Alexa, I am both South African and Taiwanese, grew up from a South African background, but is currently settled in Taipei, Taiwan.

I majored in Psychology at the University of Cape Town (South Africa); and thereafter trained in Clinical Psychology and received my qualification as a Clinical Psychologist through a licensure exam in Taiwan. I furthered my training by obtaining a Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy. Due to my dual background, I am able to practice Psychological Assessment, Psychotherapy, work related to Forensic psychology and Hypnotherapy in English and Chinese Mandarin.

I specialize in understanding and identifying with Asians living in Western and European countries who are struggling to find self-identity and have adjustment issues in foreign cultures; in addition to expats who are residing in Asia but have difficulty with cultural clashes and coping with stressful working environment. Lastly, I am passionate about teaching self-hypnosis and stress management, helping one cope with daily stress.

MindfulnessMindfulness is the process of maintaining a purposeful moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and surrounding environment.

My approach is mainly using Hypno-CBT. Hypno-CBT can be described as hypnotic-psychotherapy; which integrates hypnosis, cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness.
