About Qianwen
Background, therapeutic approach, and clinical philosophy
An AASW Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and EMDRAA Accredited Practitioner, Qianwen brings experience in tertiary counselling, crisis mental health care, and supporting people with complex mental health needs.
Qianwen has a particular interest in working with adults affected by trauma, from a single event to the lasting effects of childhood experiences. Her approach combines a clear therapeutic framework with collaboration, making room for each person’s experiences, priorities, and pace.
She draws on EMDR, Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). Central to her work is an inclusive, affirming approach that respects diverse identities and backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ people, neurodivergent people, and multicultural communities.
