About Fang

PACFA registered clinical counsellor with five years' experience, Fang Liu works in Australia with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also works with trauma and abuse, addictions, ADHD and bipolar concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Mandarin and are designed around the person's needs and goals.

Fang uses Client-Centred and Emotionally-Focused methods to guide conversations and help clients make sense of feelings and patterns. She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when helpful. That means sessions can include exploring attachment patterns, naming unhelpful thought habits, and practising new ways of relating to others.

Past work has included supporting people through trauma, complex dissociation, and the aftermath of adverse childhood experiences. She has helped people manage grief, compassion fatigue, and issues arising from domestic violence and separation. Fang has experience working with people affected by autism spectrum differences and first responder stressors.

In practice she focuses on practical skills and clearer understanding rather than labels. Conversations often move between exploring past relationships and building present coping strategies. Clients can expect direct questions, reflective listening, and collaborative planning for next steps.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and costs vary by location. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the See online therapy options button.

How these approaches shape online work

Fang commonly uses Client-Centred and Emotionally-Focused methods alongside Attachment-Based ideas. Client-Centred work means conversations focus on the person's perspective, with the counsellor reflecting and clarifying to help things feel clearer. Emotionally-Focused work concentrates on identifying and naming emotions in relationships and on changing patterns that cause repeated hurt. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationship patterns influence current behaviour and feelings, which can help with relationship and intimacy-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Fang collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning includes checking what feels helpful from session to session and adjusting strategies over time.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life and to keep appointments that would otherwise be hard to reach. It can also allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time and help people attend when they need flexibility. Appropriately qualified or registered therapists, including those using the listed approaches, can adapt techniques to work well in remote sessions.
