About Jonathan

EMDR Certified | CVAP & FNHA Approved | Licensed in BC & Alberta

I am an Asian-White immigrant settler living and working on the unceded, ancestral, and traditional territories of the Coast Salish First Nations, with ancestral roots in the Hakka Chinese community of South Africa.

​

I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of Toronto (2014) and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of British Columbia (2009). I am licensed to provide mental health therapy in both British Columbia and Alberta.

​

My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based, trauma-informed, and systems theory frameworks. I am a certified EMDR therapist, trained in Level 1 Internal Family Systems (IFS), and have a foundation in behavioural therapies including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). I am also trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples.

​

As an EMDRIA Approved EMDR Consultant-In-Training, I offer EMDR consultant services to clinicians interested in EMDR and/or pursuing EMDR certification.

​

Over the past decade, I’ve worked in diverse clinical settings, including BC Children’s Hospital and Family Services of Greater Vancouver. Since 2020, I have been managing my private practice, supporting individuals and couples in navigating complex life experiences with compassion and care.
