How Qiuyan works

In sessions Qiuyan treats each person as the expert in their own life. She listens for strengths and simple habits to adjust, then practises new ways of handling difficult thoughts and feelings together. The approach is collaborative and paced to what feels manageable for the individual.

Qiuyan has three years of experience working with a range of everyday challenges, including social anxiety and workplace issues. She also supports people dealing with control issues, divorce and separation, post-traumatic stress and questions about life purpose and self-love. Her style is calm and encouraging, with practical steps to try between sessions.

Starting therapy with Qiuyan means taking small, clear steps. She will work with each person to set realistic goals and track progress. For Mandarin speakers she can offer sessions in that language as well as in English.

Online support options

How evidence-based techniques work online

Qiuyan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and small, measurable changes. One common approach involves learning coping and relaxation strategies to reduce stress and manage anxiety symptoms; these techniques teach breathing, grounding and simple behavioural changes to try between sessions. Another approach emphasises building self-esteem and motivation through gradual goal-setting and behavioural experiments to test new ways of acting and thinking in daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Qiuyan will work with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress is made so the therapy stays relevant and doable.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat lets people check in quickly during a busy day, and text-based messaging supports shorter, ongoing reflection. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, study and family routines while still working through meaningful change with an ACA counsellor.
