“Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything.
Maybe it’s about un-becoming everything that isn’t really you,
so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.”
― Paul Coelho

Meet the Therapist: Beibei Mu
Beibei Mu is a therapist in London and online
What attracted you to become a therapist?
After I graduated with a mathematics degree and received an offer from a top investment bank, I felt increasingly unfulfilled and realised something was missing in my life. I took the decision to travel for a year and this solo backpacking trip in Oceania and South America transformed me profoundly, including my view that life is not a race, but an adventure to be lived. It is also through this trip I experienced how deep and authentic human connections can heal us.
With an interest in psychology, personal growth and my desire to facilitate healing in myself and others, I later decided to train as a therapist in my late twenties.
