—TREATMENT FOCUS

Children of Immigrant Parents Support

Growing up between cultures can mean navigating family expectations, personal needs, identity, and belonging all at once. At Sao Therapy, we offer space to explore intergenerational patterns, cultural expectations, and the roles you may have learned to carry within your family. Together, we can honour where you come from while making room for your own voice, values, and the person you are becoming.

HOW CAN THERAPY HELP?

Untangle what was expected of you from what feels true to you:

Therapy can help you explore the cultural expectations, family roles, and experiences that have shaped how you see yourself and what you feel responsible for. Together, we can make space for guilt, loyalty, boundaries, and belonging while helping you build a more trusting and compassionate relationship with yourself. The goal is to help you honour where you come from while making choices that feel authentic to who you are.

WHAT TREATMENT COULD LOOK LIKE

Treatment may involve exploring cultural expectations, family roles, intergenerational patterns, and the beliefs you learned about responsibility, success, and belonging. Together, we can look at how these experiences continue to shape your relationships and choices, while making space for boundaries, self-compassion, and a stronger sense of identity. Explore the topics below to learn more. Some resources are available now, with more coming soon.

You can honour where you come from while still making space for who you are becoming.

We’d be happy to connect you with a clinician who can support you in finding that balance.

We are NOT a crisis service. If you are in crisis, please call 911, go to your nearest emergency department, or dial 310-6789 in BC for urgent support.
