Hannah Lim
Psychologist
Approach
Hannah takes a client-centred and collaborative approach to therapy and aims to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable sharing their experiences at their own pace. Recognising that no single approach works for everyone, she tailors therapy to each client’s individual needs, goals, and circumstances.
She draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and motivational interviewing.
