I highly recommend Mandy to anyone seeking couples therapy. She is not only an incredibly professional listener but also highly skilled at breaking down the underlying logic behind complex emotions. With Mandy’s guidance, we were able to establish a truly safe and non-judgmental space to communicate. She helped us untangle long-standing issues and taught us how to genuinely understand and emotionally support each other. I am so grateful for her professionalism and warmth, which have made our relationship stronger and more connected than ever. Highly recommended!

We have had couple counselling with Mandy Fang for a couple years now. Mandy has helped us to see our issues from each other's perspective and communicate our needs with each other. She is incredibly capable and has saved our marriage many times. We are truly grateful. John and Yan

After five sessions, I’ve learned some truly valuable lessons. Mandy has been incredibly patient, taking the time to listen to my story and understand my challenges. I’ve struggled with anger and frustration for a long time, and Mandy helped me uncover hidden emotional wounds from my past. I didn’t even realize I was dealing with PTSD until now. Through her guidance, I’ve learned techniques to self-reflect and confront fears that have haunted me for decades. While I haven’t fully overcome all my doubts and anxieties yet, the progress I’ve made in just a few weeks is remarkable. Thank you, Mandy, for everything you’ve done.

I cannot express enough gratitude to Mandy for her wonderful guidance and compassion during the difficult time I recently went through while my husband was hospitalized. In every session, I genuinely feel that she understands my worries and concerns. She always knows how to encourage me to overcome those worries and find the strength to face whatever challenges arise. I am truly thankful to Mandy for everything she has done for me.

Five+ star! I have been on an extremely challenging fertility journey for the past nine years, and I have been seeing Mandy for over two of them. In every session, I feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. Mandy is an exceptionally skilled, capable, and compassionate psychotherapist — truly one of the most dedicated professionals I have ever worked with. Her guidance has helped me navigate some of the most emotionally complex moments of my life with clarity and strength. Her admin, Lucia, is also wonderfully professional and consistently responsive. Together, they are absolutely incredible. I am deeply grateful for everything they have done for me.

Hopewood Psychotherapy is truly remarkable, providing exceptional care and support when I needed them most. I experienced two losses within three months — the preterm birth of my son at 22 weeks and the passing of my father from advanced dementia. During the darkest period of my life, Mandy was the one who guided me through with incredible compassion, insight, and professionalism. She is an extraordinarily skilled and empathetic counsellor who helped me begin to find hope and joy again. Her administrative assistant, Lucia, is equally wonderful — consistently professional, efficient, and responsive. I always received timely, thoughtful communication and support.

More than 5*s! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Elden Leung helped me find peace I didn’t think was possible. If you’re in pain, searching for answers, do try out psychotherapy — it's a big world to discover! Here’s what I’ve learned. I’ve worked with over five long-term therapists and many more crisis-line professionals since my own trauma began in childhood and teenage years. Some helped a bit. Some didn’t fit at all. But Elden? He helped me transform. From the very beginning, I could tell he was different — warm, creative, deeply human, and also extremely practical. His approach is grounded in EFT and IFS, but more than that, it’s grounded in real care. He helped me slow down and truly process the patterns rooted in my past. Not just intellectually — but emotionally, in my body, where trauma really lives. Now close to 40, I’ve lived long enough to know what doesn’t work. And for years, I struggled to find a therapist who truly understood my experience — especially around inattentive parents who were always working, or the strictness and emotional tone of Chinese parenting. I speak Cantonese and Mandarin, and many non–culturally aware therapists assumed I was “talking too fast” — but they simply didn’t understand the rhythm or emotion of the language. Elden got it. He listened without assumptions. And that made a huge difference. He’s not just any therapist — Elden is also the clinical director of his psychotherapy clinic, chosen to lead and mentor among fellow professionals. That means he carries a lot of responsibility and wears many hats. As a dentist and fellow healthcare professional, I understand how invisible that weight can be. So when someone like him still shows up with humility, warmth, and attentiveness — that speaks volumes. That’s why I felt moved to write this, even though he never asked. One of the most ingenious and freeing tools he introduced me to was sandplay therapy — a surprisingly powerful way to express and unload the stories hidden in the brain, body, and heart. He also shared Zentangle/Zendoodle with me — creative practices that helped me reconnect with play, curiosity, and the joy of non-perfectionistic art. So much healing came through in unexpected ways. In my experience, Elden never rushed me or told me to forgive anyone. He gave me space to feel, protect myself, and grieve. Over time, at my own pace, I chose to explore what forgiveness meant to me — as a way to release what I’d carried for so long. That didn’t come from pressure. That came from healing. I’ve seen some 1-star reviews, which I read on my own — not because Elden mentioned them. As a clinician myself, I always read everything from 5-star to 1-star, and honestly, it’s heartbreaking how often those reviews reflect misplaced expectations: “The WiFi didn’t work.” “The forms were too long.” Or misunderstandings like: “He didn’t lecture my child for playing video games.” But real therapy isn’t about scolding or instant fixes. It’s about drawing out what lies beneath — the longings, the fears, the coping mechanisms that once protected us. Elden explained that EFT is like repairing old roads from the past. It’s not fast or pretty — but it works. The truth is, pain lives deep — in the teeth, the bones, the blood, the guts, and the heart. It carries years of invisible struggle. Healing isn’t about perfection. It’s about being witnessed, being realistic, and being willing to grow. You don’t need to take my word for it. Just know that this kind of care exists. And if you’re ready — it’s worth it. Thank you, Elden, for walking alongside me. For helping me find a kind of deep inner peace I hadn’t felt in years.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the truly wonderful and professional service I received from Elden Leung. From the very first session, Elden's warmth, attentiveness, and expertise were evident, making me feel completely heard and supported. His deep understanding, compassionate approach, and insightful guidance created a safe space for genuine growth and healing. Elden's professionalism is truly commendable—he seamlessly blends knowledge with empathy, ensuring each session is both meaningful and impactful. His ability to listen, reflect, and provide thoughtful perspectives has been invaluable. I feel incredibly fortunate to have worked with him and highly recommend his services to anyone seeking exceptional care. Thank you, Elden, for your dedication and kindness!

I work with Hopewoods’ lead therapist Mandy for the past few years. She is an incredible individual with a wealth of wisdom, approachable and supportive. 😭 During a challenging period in my life, she provided invaluable guidance, helping me focus on areas for personal growth. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking support.

I have been a client at Hopewoods for several years now, and I can confidently say that my experience has been nothing short of remarkable. The combination of an outstanding therapist and a well-managed administration has created a therapeutic environment that I consider a true lifesaver. First and foremost, the therapist at Hopewoods is exceptional. Their professionalism, empathy, and abundance of patience have played a pivotal role in my journey towards healing. From the very first session, I felt a genuine connection and their ability to create a safe and welcoming space made it easy for me to open up about my struggles. This is not the first clinic I have visited and it's rare to find someone who not only possesses the expertise to guide you through your challenges but also genuinely cares about your well-being. The consistent support and understanding I have received from my therapist have been invaluable and I continue to make regular appointments for updates and check-ins because I recognize the positive impact it has had on my mental health. Knowing that I have a trusted confidant who is committed to my well-being is incredibly reassuring. Equally commendable is the clinic's administration. The administrative staff at Hopewoods have consistently demonstrated efficiency and professionalism. Scheduling appointments is seamless, and any administrative matters are handled with a level of care. If you are looking for a place where you can feel heard, supported, and truly understood, Hopewoods is the place to be.
