Elise Phillipson, Psychotherapist & Counsellor at AMindset, was recently featured in South China Morning Post (SCMP).
In the article exploring why many midlife professionals in Hong Kong are retraining as counsellors, therapists, and coaches, Elise shares her personal journey of finding deeper purpose through psychotherapy and stepping into a career built on empathy, reflection, and meaningful human connection.
Her story is a strong reminder that career growth does not always follow a straight path. Sometimes, the most meaningful work begins later in life, when experience and purpose finally align.
At AMindset., we value therapists like Elise whose work reflects compassion, professionalism, and genuine understanding of the human experience.
This feature highlights not only Elise’s personal journey, but also the importance of creating spaces where mental health support is approached with depth, care, and authenticity.
