My name is Ling. I was raised in northern China, with my father’s influence of music and art and my mother’s drive for business success. Growing up I experienced their tumultuous marriage and after my mother’s passing in 2002, I moved to the UK in search of my own identity.

Reflecting upon my journey since moving to the UK, I can clearly see a path from becoming aware of my survival self, exploring my authentic self and an ongoing alignment with the authentic self.  This journey of self-discovery and self-expression has led me to greater understanding of my and others’ inherent need for self-realisation.  

Having had a career in finance in London for over 10 years, I’m undertaken training at the Institute of Psychosynthesis. I have qualified as a counsellor and am continuing clinical training and working towards becoming a fully qualified psychotherapist.
