Dr Li-Faye Lim
My Experience
Hi, I am Li-Faye. I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 12 years of experience providing therapy to adults, older adults, young people and their parents, carers and family members. I have a good understanding of the particular stresses of corporate working life, having changed careers to psychology after 5 years in various business and finance roles in a major multi-national corporation in London. As a parent, I have lived experience of the particular challenges and stressors faced by both full-time parents and working parents.
I can help you with:
- Abuse
- Anxiety (including phobias and panic)
- Depression and low mood
- Difficulties associates with personality disorders
- Difficulties managing intense emotions
- Grief and Loss
- Relationship difficulties
- Stress and work related stress
- Trauma and PTSD
My Values
I aim to provide a safe, non-judgemental space, with warmth and compassion to help you feel at ease. I embrace all differences, especially having worked in different parts of the world with different cultures and beliefs.
The Models I Work With:
I am trained in a wide variety of therapeutic models, including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Systemic and Family Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT) and mindfulness-based approaches. This allows me to quickly understand problems and help clients to make sense of their experiences and work towards their personal therapy goals.
Clinic Information
I currently hold a clinic virtually on a Thursday and Friday morning.
