Internationally renowned, Nikki Green is one of the most highly sought after couples therapists in Hong Kong, where she was born and spent most of her life (other than 8 years in the US and Mexico).

Growing up she received the message from her parents that she was unlovable, and feeling the shadow of that grow stronger and stronger with each failed relationship, Nikki was determined not to let that define her. She has dedicated her life to her insatiable curiosity regarding how to create a deeply loving relationship, seemingly against all odds, and to help others get there too!

Having grown up in classrooms and at birthday parties that resembled the United Nations, she and her work are deeply cross-cultural.

Well-qualified and highly experienced, Nikki made a name for herself offering psychotherapy, relationship/marital therapy, and sex therapy using an eclectic mix of styles developed over her extensive career. She is renowned for getting to the heart of the matter quickly and profoundly. After almost 25 years of working with a large number of troubled couples, Nikki is an ‘affairs’ expert – she has worked with individuals, couples and groups helping people to both enrich their relationships so they avoid affairs, as well as healing from them. She is highly dedicated, results-oriented and passionate about her work.

She now divides her time between Hong Kong, the UK and the US.
