Christine is from Vietnam and grew up in a multicultural community leading her to highly value inclusive and family-centred practice. Christine had a playful childhood. From a young age, she enjoyed creating dance routines with her relatives, trampolining in her backyard, playing at the playground and exploring a range of creative outlets with her loved ones.

Outside of work, Christine is an explorer – she loves exploring new places and trying new things. She enjoys exercising with pilates and scenic walks. And you commonly find her in antique or op shops, picking up some treasures. Christine loves spending quality time with family, and friends and playing with her furry friends (Simsim and Coco).

Sometimes, despite our best efforts you or the therapist may find that you are not a good fit. If your therapist feels that he or she is not best suited to you, he/ she will discuss this with you and recommend a more appropriate therapist.

If you feel that your therapist is not a good fit within the first three sessions, simply discuss this with our admin team who will find a more suitable therapist.
