Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR
🌟 Executive Summary I am a Registered Social Worker and serve as an Education Officer at The Mental Health Association of Hong Kong (MHAHK). Combining a Master of Social Work (PolyU) with a Bachelor of Engineering (HKU), I bring a unique analytical and human-centric lens to corporate wellness. Over a 20-year career in social services and frontline counseling, my experience spans family support, youth development, and crisis intervention, with over 12 years dedicated strictly to professional corporate training. At MHAHK, I lead workplace mental health education, having delivered over 350 professional training sessions for more than 150 government departments, multinational corporations, and NGOs, directly impacting over 10,000 participants. 💡 Philosophy: From Awareness to Action A common gap in corporate wellness is that teams are told why mental health matters, but are rarely taught how to manage it practically. My mission is to bridge this gap by translating complex psychological and behavioral science concepts into structured, actionable workplace toolkits that encourage immediate on-the-job application. 🎯 Key Learning Tracks & Training Portfolios 1. Workplace Mental Health & Stress Management: Identifying common emotional challenges (burnout, anxiety) and building proactive team resilience. 2.
