About Shu-Han
Shu-Han Liu is an AASW social worker with three years of practice in Australia. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and major life changes. Shu-Han speaks English and brings both professional and personal experience to her work.
She uses a collaborative, client-led style that focuses on listening and practical conversation. Sessions tend to involve two-way interaction and straightforward strategies rather than lectures or assessments. Shu-Han aims to help people notice what matters to them and try small changes that make daily life easier.
Her background includes work with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. That experience informs how she approaches concerns such as domestic violence, immigration-related stress and caring for someone with mental health needs. She also supports people facing issues like isolation, money worries, communication problems and relationship difficulties within families.
Shu-Han draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and practical psychosocial supports. In practice this can mean working on coping skills, behavioural strategies and clearer problem-solving steps you can try between sessions. She frames therapy as a shared process and checks in about what is or is not helpful.
People often come to her needing help with obsessive or compulsive behaviours, attachment or avoidant personality patterns, body image and mood problems. Shu-Han favours short, manageable goals and clear takeaways so progress feels achievable rather than overwhelming.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Shu-Han uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and behavioural change. One common approach she uses teaches specific coping and self-regulation skills to manage anxiety and stress; this involves short exercises and step-by-step practice that can be tried between sessions. Another approach focuses on behavioural strategies for unwanted habits or compulsions, helping people identify triggers and build small alternative actions to reduce distress.Choosing the right method is part of the work together. She will talk through what you want to achieve, try an approach for a few sessions, and adjust based on what feels helpful. That collaborative checking helps match techniques to your goals and preferences rather than assuming one method fits all.
Please confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce time spent travelling. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed and can be less demanding than longer face-to-face appointments. AASW social workers and other appropriately qualified counsellors often find these practical benefits help people keep consistency with care and apply strategies between sessions.
