About Christopher

Christopher Yeung is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. He works with people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship strain, codependency and life changes. Sessions are offered in English, Mandarin and Cantonese.

Christopher often meets people who feel high-functioning on the outside but exhausted inside. He describes many struggles as survival responses - for example chronic anxiety, overthinking, emotional numbness, low self-worth and difficulty trusting others. He talks about these patterns plainly and without judgement.

His approach draws on psychodynamic ideas alongside attachment-based and client-centred methods. In practice this means listening for repeating life patterns and helping clients link present reactions to earlier experiences. Sessions focus on making sense of those patterns so they have less power over day-to-day life.

He uses elements of cognitive behavioural work and emotionally-focused ideas when helpful, such as looking at thoughts or practising different ways of relating. He also names Jungian perspectives for people interested in meaning, symbols and deeper personal themes.

Christopher offers both shorter-term and longer-term work depending on individual goals. He encourages clients to go at a pace that feels manageable while exploring practical steps for coping with stress, setting boundaries, and improving sleep or mood. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can work

Attachment-based work pays attention to patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how early bonds shape current reactions. This can be useful for people who struggle with trust, clinginess, avoidance or codependent ways of relating. Client-centred work focuses on the person in front of the counsellor, offering non-directive listening and reflection to help someone find their own answers. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thoughts and behaviours, and can help with anxiety, sleep difficulties and overthinking by testing unhelpful thinking and trying new actions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The counsellor will collaborate with the client to agree what feels most useful, and may adjust methods as goals change. That shared decision-making helps match the work to a person’s needs and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or sessions without needing to travel. It can also let someone choose whether to use video or another format depending on what feels manageable. Registered or accredited professionals aim to help you make therapy part of everyday life while focusing on practical changes alongside deeper understanding.
