advocated for a strength-oriented empowerment approach in her work with traumatized
individuals such as cancer patients, women of divorce, bereaved persons, couples with
fertility issues, suicide survivors and victims of disaster. Her focus is on transformation
through pain and suffering. She adopted vigorous bio-psycho-social outcome indicators in her
randomized trials on measuring impact of her innovative Integrative Body-Mind-Spirit (IBMS)
interventions on different population groups. She leads the first multi-disciplinary team using
salivary cortisol (stress) and telomerase (anti-aging) as physiological impact on psychosocial
and qigong exercises training by social workers. Her creative synergy of Chinese philosophies
and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practices into holistic behavioral health intervention
is ground breaking. Her integrative meaning-making empowerment strategies effectively
nurture spirituality of forgiveness, appreciation, gratitude, peace, hope, resilience and
optimism, which are fundamental to building a harmonious society. Her leadership in the
study of hospice, palliative, trauma, disaster and bereavement care is also recognized by her
many international awards and local recognitions. She has graduated 48 research postgraduate
students, many of them has taken up leadership positions in prestigious universities. She has
established new service delivery systems like Hospital Patients’ Resource Centers and
Community Rehabilitation Network, as well as establish new services for orphans, chronic
patients and victims of disaster. She is an excellent social work academic and practitioner, a
