Is marriage on your mind? Is getting a pre-marital counselling course part of your plan before you get married? Or have you been married but now facing some challenges in marriage and try to fix it? Whether you are coming from a preventative point of view or retrospectively trying to fix your marriage, going over the foundational knowledge is the way to go. In eight sessions, the marriage foundation course follows a syllabus to cover eight important topics that set the marriage up for success. Your facilitator will guild you through each topic with various discussions to help you learn more about your childhood family of origin and what you are brining into the adult family of your own. This process will help you identify some of the pitfalls and learn about each other's styles to optimize your marital relationship by equipping you with effective communication and conflict resolution skills. Besides anchoring on evidence-based knowledge, you will get a chance to practice in between sessions to make what you've learned work in real life. By the end of this course, you will gain confidence in building a fulfilling marital life together with you partner with all the evidence-based knowledge and practical skills for a long-lasting relationship. To purchase a package, please call/text or WhatsApp our front desk at 604-448-2416 or E-mail us at info@nuwaycounselling.ca.

Ms. Patsy Wong

Patsy Wong

B.C. Registered Clinical Counsellor #19341

With more than 10 years of experience in psychotherapy and counselling, I have been working with adults and young adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief&loss, marital issues, life transitions, self-esteem, parenting, and family counselling. At times, we may get stuck, feel overwhelmed or even lost. In face of these challenges, it is not uncommon to run away from them, or fight so hard trying to get rid of them. More often than not, neither way leads to a peaceful mind. I am here to walk with you in these struggles, work with you to navigate in a direction which aligns more with your values and leads to a more peaceful, meaningful and satisfying life.

I am trained in Mindfulness, EMDR and Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Recent training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and family therapy widens my angle to understand human sufferings. Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, I have worked in business marketing.

To me, every part of my experience helps in my encounter with clients. I believe that healing starts when we are aware of ourselves, our feelings, values, struggles, vulnerabilities and resilience, and our relationships with others and ourselves. From there, I will work with you on the treatment approach, accompany and guide you through the discovery and recovery journey, and prepare you for future challenges.

I provide services in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English.
