About Christopher

Christopher Yeung is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. He works with adults who are carrying stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship and parenting concerns. Sessions are offered in English, Mandarin and Cantonese and he accepts international clients.

Christopher describes many clients as outwardly functioning but inwardly exhausted or numb. He listens for patterns that link present struggles to past experiences, and helps people name how stress and shame show up in daily life. He uses a psychodynamic perspective alongside other approaches to help people understand those patterns.

His style is patient and reflective. Conversations focus on what feels most difficult now - sleep problems, anger, grief, or trouble trusting others - and on small changes that make daily life more manageable. He also works with people facing addiction issues, eating and body-image concerns, ADHD and bipolar-related difficulties.

Christopher draws on Attachment-Based, Client-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural and Emotionally-Focused ideas, as well as Jungian perspectives, to match methods to a person’s needs. That can mean tracking unhelpful thoughts, noticing relational patterns, or exploring emotional responses tied to early experiences.

Practical needs are part of the work. He can talk through parenting stress, communication problems, or coping after separation and loss. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and increase clarity about next steps, not to fix or label a person.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds and trust. Online sessions can help people notice and change patterns in how they relate to others, especially around closeness and boundaries. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person’s experience and pace. In practice this means the counsellor follows what the client brings, offering listening and reflection so the client can make sense of feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Online work can include tracking thoughts, setting short experiments, and practising new responses between sessions. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide what fits best given a person’s goals, needs and preferences. That might mean using emotion-focused techniques for relationship wounds, CBT for sleep and anxiety, or attachment ideas for trust issues. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods to suit quieter timings, lower bandwidth connections, or shorter weekly slots so therapy fits day-to-day demands.
