Fang Liu, PACFA

Fang Liu is a PACFA-registered clinical counsellor with five years of professional experience supporting people through a wide range of emotional and life challenges. She works with clients facing autism spectrum conditions, ADHD, clinical depression, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and adverse childhood experiences, PTSD and complex PTSD, structural dissociation, and bipolar disorder, offering a compassionate, respectful, and sensitive approach to care.

Drawing on person-centered and emotionally focused methods, Fang adapts conversations and treatment plans to the individual needs of each client, prioritizing what will be most helpful for their situation and goals. Her practice is informed by an understanding of attachment, family dynamics, and co-occurring conditions, so she is able to address issues like abandonment, communication problems, grief, parenting struggles, intimacy-related concerns, and workplace stress.

As a PACFA-registered counsellor - registered with the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia - Fang emphasizes collaboration, empathy, and practical strategies that fit into everyday life. She provides support for clients seeking relief from anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship strain, and for those navigating major life transitions, caregiver fatigue, or continuing effects of past trauma. Sessions are tailored to each client, with an aim to build insight, strengthen coping skills, and foster more connected relationships.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Fang Liu draws on several evidence-informed approaches to meet clients where they are. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client is the expert on their own life; this approach helps people build self-awareness, confidence, and a clearer sense of direction. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify, name, and shift the emotional patterns that shape their relationships and attachment; it is often helpful for couples work and for people coping with fear, loss, or relational pain. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current feelings and behaviors, offering a framework for healing abandonment, attachment issues, and difficulties with intimacy or trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Fang works collaboratively with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors the methods and pace to suit each person. That collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Fang is offered by video call, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or geographic constraints. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from home or another comfortable setting while maintaining continuity of care and adapting session styles to what works best for the individual.
