About Dr. Aurélie Comes - Clinical Psychologist in Hong Kong
I'm a Clinical Psychologist based in Hong Kong, working with adults and adolescents who want structured, evidence-based support, not just someone to talk to, but a clear path forward.
My clients are often high-functioning people who are used to managing independently. They're coping, but something isn't working, and they're ready to change that.
How I work
Every client is different, so I don't follow a rigid script. But my approach is always structured, goal-oriented, and grounded in evidence. Together we'll:
Start with a thorough assessment to understand what's happening and what you want to change
Set clear, measurable goals from the beginning
Build practical skills and tools you can use between sessions
Review progress regularly and adapt as needed
Work toward a clear end point - with the tools to maintain it
I draw primarily on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and EMDR, with elements of mindfulness and compassion-focused approaches where relevant.

Why Professionals and Expats in Hong Kong Choose Dr Aurélie Comes
Finding a qualified psychologist in Hong Kong who offers sessions in English or French can be challenging.
Here is what sets this practice apart:
- UK NHS training: I trained and worked clinically within the NHS before moving to Hong Kong, giving me a depth of clinical experience that is rare in private practice.
