About Me
I'm Émilie Lefèvre, a French-trained psychotherapist, therapist and counsellor offering bilingual (English/French) mental health support and counseling in Sheung Wan, Central Hong Kong or Online.
What makes my approach unique ?
15 years at the intersection of education, nursing, and social work — including hands-on mental health and disability support — have honed my ability to understand life's complexities with both clinical precision and deep humanity.
Originally from Paris, I've called both San Francisco and Hong Kong home—where I've now lived for over 7 years.
My extensive travels across 40 countries have cultivated a deep appreciation for cultural diversity. These experiences have shaped my professional perspective, allowing me to approach therapy with openness, adaptability, and respect for different worldviews.
I firmly believe that our differences are opportunities for mutual learning and growth.
My personalized therapy sessions help you:

Break free from negative patterns

Heal deep wounds holding you back
-
Build stronger connections with yourself and others

🌿 Integrative & Holistic
Therapy Approach
Cultivating Healing Through Connection
At the heart of my practice is a simple truth: you deserve to feel seen, safe, and deeply understood. I blend integrative therapy (tailoring tools to your unique needs) with a holistic focus on mind, body, and heart.
Here, your story is honored, not just your symptoms.
A Space Where You Can:
✨ Breathe easy – Your privacy is sacred, your background celebrated.
🌱 Grow at your pace – No judgments, no rushed fixes.
🗣 Find your voice – Therapy amplifies what you want to heal.
"Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is your power to choose growth."
Viktor Frankl
How We’ll Work Together
Combining evidence-based methods with genuine human connection, we’ll:
🔹 Unpack emotions safely – A judgment-free zone to explore what’s weighing you down.
🔹 Build resilience – Practical tools to handle stress, anxiety, or relationship struggles.
🔹 Rewrite old patterns – Turn self-criticism into self-awareness.
🔹 Strengthen connections – Communicate in ways that feel true to you.
Why integrative therapy?
Because healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. I draw from:
-
CBT (challenge unhelpful thoughts)
-
Mindfulness (calm the nervous system)
-
Narrative Therapy (reclaim your story)
-
Somatic Techniques (listen to your body’s wisdom)
