My name is Nan Ma (April). I graduated with a master's degree in social work from

我叫马楠，英文名 April。我毕业于麦克马斯特大学，拥有社会工作硕士学位。我是安大略省社会工作者和社会服务工作者学院的注册社会工作者（OCSWSSW，注册号
#828927），并且是安大略省社会工作者协会（OASW）认证的、信誉良好的专业从业人士。经过多门类专业培训和实践，我擅长认知行为疗法、辩证行为疗法和夫妻咨询（戈特曼夫妻治疗）。此外，我可以提供普通话和英语的咨询服务。
I have eight years of professional experience in relevant organizations, providing
support and counselling services to individuals, couples, and families of different
ages and groups. I work with people who experience PTSD — such as car accidents and
other major changes or events in their lives. Social work counselling can help in
rebuilding self-confidence to face difficulties.
我在相关组织机构工作，拥有八年的专业咨询经验，为不同年龄和群体的个人、夫妻和家庭提供支持和咨询服务。目前，我主要服务于经历过创伤后应激障碍的人，例如车祸，或是生活中承受巨大变化的个人和家庭。社会工作心理咨询可以帮助重建自信以面对困难。
I have a deep understanding of life transitions, whether positive or negative,
location changes, and role changes — because I was an international student myself and
experienced challenges adjusting to academic and daily life. I would like to use my
knowledge and skills to support and help more international students, immigrants, and
their families to have a better life in Canada.
我对生活的转变有深刻的理解，无论是正面的还是负面的，无论是地点的变化，还是角色的变化。因为我曾经是一名国际学生，从中国北京来到加拿大安省的汉密尔顿市。在这一变化中，我在学习和日常生活的调整方面遇到了一些挑战。我希望运用我的知识和技能，来支持和帮助更多的国际学生、移民和他们的家人，在加拿大过上更好的生活。
Please let me know if you feel alone, sad, frustrated, or disappointed, and book a
free 20-minute session. I will be a great listener and give you a safe space and
moment to speak out. Then, we can move to systemic mental health counselling. You will
know more about yourself, learn skills to deal with your emotions, and improve your
abilities in communication and problem-solving.
如果您感到孤独、悲伤、沮丧或失望，请告诉我，并预约20分钟的免费咨询。我会成为一个很好的倾听者，给你一个安全、自由的空间和时间来为自己发声。然后，我们可以转向系统性的心理健康咨询。你会更了解自己，学习一些处理情绪的技巧，提高沟通和解决问题的能力。
