Intern
Hanshu Liu
Hanshu believes that healing begins with feeling truly understood. She connects deeply with the immigrant experience and is passionate about supporting individuals and families who may feel caught between cultures or weighed down by stigma around mental health. Fluent in Mandarin, she values creating a safe space where language and culture are embraced as strengths in the healing journey.
Hanshu earned her master’s degree in counseling psychology in 2019 after beginning her graduate studies in 2017, and she is currently pursuing her doctoral degree in counseling psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute. Pacifica is recognized for its depth psychology tradition, which emphasizes the importance of meaning, story, and the unconscious in the healing process. Since 2022, Hanshu has been providing psychotherapy through her practicum and subsequent clinical training, working with clients facing trauma, depression, anxiety, family conflict, acculturation stress, and identity challenges. She views symptoms not simply as problems to be solved but as meaningful adaptations that reflect resilience and creativity.
Her therapeutic style is compassionate, relational, and culturally responsive. She integrates psychodynamic, attachment based, and trauma informed approaches while remaining attentive to the influence of family history, cultural background, and systemic barriers on well being. Clients often describe her as warm, open, and deeply invested in their growth. Her goal is to walk alongside each person as they move toward authenticity, resilience, and emotional well being.
Hanshu相信, 療愈始於被真正理解。她對移⺠的經歷有深刻共鳴，並熱衷於支持那些可能在不同文化之間徘徊或因心理健康污名而承受壓力的個體和家庭。她精通普通話，重視在療愈過程中營造安全的空間， 讓語言和文化被視爲力量與資源。
Hanshu於2017年開始研究生學習，並於2019年獲得心理諮詢碩士學位, 目前正在Pacifica Graduate Institute攻讀心理諮詢博士學位。Pacifica以其深度心理學傳統而聞名，強調在療愈過程中意義、敘事以及潛意識的重要性。自2022年以來，Hanshu通過實習及後續的臨牀訓練開始提供心理治療服務，支持面對創傷、抑鬱、焦慮、家庭衝突、文化適應壓力和身份挑戰的客戶。她不將症狀僅視爲需要解決的問題，而是將其視爲展現韌性與創造力的有意義的適應方式。
她的治療⻛格富有同理心、注重關系，並具有文化敏感性。她將心理動力學、基於依戀關係以及創傷干預等方法相結合，同時關注家庭史、文化背景以及系統性障礙對心理健康的影響。客戶常形容她溫暖、開放，且真誠投入於他們的成⻓之中。她的目標是陪伴每位客戶走向真實、自我復原力以及情緒健康的旅程。
Focus on culture sensitivity
I guide doctoral students in clinical psychology with a professional and personalized approach to supervision. Our supervisees are registered Psychological Associates with the Board of Psychology, an official status that enables them to provide psychological services under licensed oversight. This registration underscores both their advanced level of training and the structured accountability within our clinical setting.
我以專業且個性化的方式爲臨牀心理學專業的博士生提供指導。我們的受督者是在心理學委員會註冊的心理助理 (Psychological Associate)，這一官方身份使他們能夠在持牌督導的監督下提供心理服務。此註冊不僅體現了他們所受的高級訓練水平，也強調了我們臨牀環境中嚴謹的責任制度與專業規範。
Evidence-Based Supervision Models
Each supervisee engages in carefully coordinated, weekly face-to-face supervision grounded in evidence-based models such as the Discrimination Model, Integrated Developmental Model, and deliberate-practice principles. Through these frameworks, supervision evolves in complexity in line with trainees’ growing skills, transitioning from directive teaching, to collaborative consultation, to nuanced clinical judgment.
每位受督者每週都會參與精心安排的面對面督導，督导过程以循证模型为基础，包括辨別模式(Discrimination Model)、整合發展模型 (Integrated Developmental Model) 以及刻意練習原則 (deliberate-practice principles)。在這些理論框架的支持下，督導內容會隨着受訓者技能的提升逐步深化，從指令式教學, 過渡到協作式諮詢，最終發展爲對臨牀判斷的細緻培養。
Ethical and Legal Foundations
This rigorous supervisory structure supports supervisees in delivering ethically grounded, high-quality care and importantly, ensures that clients benefit from well-supervised, evolving practitioners immersed in scholarly and evidence-informed training.
這一嚴謹的督導結構支持受督者提供符合倫理規範的高質量心理服務，更重要的是，它能確保客戶從受到良好監督、不斷成⻓且接受學術和證據導向培訓的從業者那裏受益。
