About Fang
Fang Liu is a PACFA counsellor who focuses on gentle, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety. She draws on person-centred listening and emotionally-focused work to create a calm space for difficult conversations. Fang speaks English and Mandarin and practises from Australia with five years of professional experience.
Fang helps people manage many concerns such as depression, addiction, grief and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with trauma, attachment injuries, ADHD and adjustment to life changes.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make problems easier to understand and act on, not more confusing. Her approach puts the person at the centre of every session. Conversations begin by identifying what matters most to the client.
From there she will suggest ways to handle strong emotions, rebuild connections, and reduce unhelpful patterns using CBT and emotionally-focused methods when helpful. Fang also uses attachment-based ideas to understand lasting patterns from early relationships. Jungian perspectives may be brought in to explore deeper meaning and inner conflicts when relevant.
Practical skills, clearer communication and a step-by-step plan are typical outcomes of this work. People can expect straightforward language, warm listening and gradual change rather than quick fixes. Fang adapts style to each person’s needs and will discuss goals together in the first sessions.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online counselling
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people who notice repeated disconnection, abandonment fears or trouble trusting others to find new ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and the client’s priorities, giving people space to find their own answers and strengthen self-awareness. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) concentrates on practical steps to change thoughts and behaviours that keep anxiety and low mood going, and is useful for stress, sleep problems and coping skills.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Fang will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls are closest to in-person sessions and suit longer conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier for quick check-ins. Live chat or text messaging allow brief, ongoing support between sessions or when writing feels more comfortable. These options help with flexibility and continued access to appropriately qualified counsellors and therapists in Australia.
