About Xiao

Before entering the counselling field, I spent nearly a decade working as a journalist, reporting on diverse communities including immigrants, refugees, international students, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. Hearing people’s stories across different backgrounds taught me to approach each person with curiosity, empathy, and genuine respect for their lived experiences. Having first come to Canada as an international student and later built a life here, I am also familiar with questions of cultural identity, belonging, and adaptation. These experiences continue to shape my cross-cultural sensitivity and appreciation for the many paths people take. My counselling approach is integrative and grounded in person-centred therapy. I draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and strength-based perspectives, while keeping a systemic lens that considers the broader cultural, relational, and social contexts shaping people’s lives. I value evidence-informed practice and work collaboratively with clients to explore strategies that fit their goals, values, and lived experiences. At the heart of my work is the belief that meaningful change often unfolds through authentic human connection. By listening with curiosity and openness, I aim to create a space where clients feel understood and supported as they reconnect with their strengths, cultivate self-compassion, and move toward a life aligned with their values.
