Quyn’s Journey: From Darkness to Guiding Light

Meet Quyn Lê Erichsen, an extraordinary blind therapist whose life story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit. After losing her sight at the age of two, Quyn faced unimaginable hardships. At just eight years old, she was imprisoned by the communist government in Vietnam. Later, she escaped her war-torn homeland by boat, enduring ten perilous days at sea, facing death at every turn. She spent the next four years in a refugee camp, grappling with hunger, hopelessness, and powerlessness.

Arriving in Canada as a young teenager with only a grade-two education, Quyn set out on a path of relentless determination. She overcame the immense challenges of navigating the university system as a blind person and becoming a therapist in a profession that traditionally relies on sight. Through these experiences, Quyn developed a profound belief in tuning into and listening to the language of the heart, mind, and soul to deeply understand and guide others.

Now, with over fifteen years of experience, Quyn dedicates her life to helping high-achieving individuals who feel trapped by their success, disconnected, and unfulfilled. Using powerful methods like Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Hypnotherapy, and Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), she has transformed the lives of thousands of people, helping them break free from mental health challenges, heal from loneliness, cultivate deeply meaningful relationships and redefine true success.

On her talk show, Quyn will share her insights and strategies for overcoming life’s toughest challenges and finding true inner bliss. She’ll explore how to create a life filled with purpose and connection. If you’re ready to move beyond external success and discover what it truly means to live a fulfilling life, tune in and let Quyn guide you on your journey to inner peace and fulfillment. Your transformation starts here with Quyn!
