Hello, I’m Tobey, Wing Sum Tam. I’m a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist licensed in Tennessee, Illinois & Virginia, speaking English, Mandarin & Cantonese. I specialize in anxiety, trauma and relationship difficulty.
Before moving to the U.S., I have worked in an Integrated Family Service Centre in Hong Kong for over 16 years, providing individual and family counseling. I now work with adults through online therapy, offering a grounded, steady, and culturally aware space for Chinese and Asian clients navigating life across cultures.
I believe healing happens when we understand both our inner world and the systems we come from. My approach is gentle and steady, offering space for old wounds to soften, new patterns to emerge, and your voice to come forward with clarity.
Hello 我是Tobey! 我是註冊婚姻及家庭治療師(TN, IL, VA)，能說英文、普通話、廣東話。我擅長處理焦慮、創傷和關係上的挑戰。
移居美國前，我曾於香港綜合家庭服務中心提供個人及家庭輔導服務超過16年。現透過線上會談與成人來談者連結，為華人及跨文化背景的成年人提供一個踏實、細緻、具文化理解的治療空間。
我相信，療癒往往在我們理解內在世界與成長系統的交織之中發生。在治療裡，我以溫柔而穩定的方式陪伴你，讓舊有的傷口逐漸鬆動，新的模式慢慢浮現，讓你的聲音能更清晰、更貼近自己。
