About Chheayudh

Chheayudh Chhon is a counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with three years' experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, life changes, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strains, anger, self-esteem and career challenges. He also lists a wide set of additional focuses including attachment issues, abandonment, chronic illness and dissociation.

He aims to build an honest working relationship so people can say what is hard to name. Sessions often involve listening, gentle questions and reflecting back what he has heard. He may introduce mindfulness or meditation skills from his prior work as a Theravada Buddhist monk when helpful.

Chheayudh draws on several approaches to guide conversations. These include Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based ideas, client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques. He explains things simply and helps people consider practical next steps during sessions.

He offers sessions in English and Central Khmer and works with clients in the United Kingdom as well as international clients. His BACP membership is listed as his professional credential.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary by location. To begin, people use the platform's matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the See online therapy options button.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on the experience of emotion and how patterns in emotional responses shape relationships and personal wellbeing. It can help people name difficult feelings and understand how those feelings influence recurring interaction patterns.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then move toward actions that reflect their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress when practical steps are needed alongside reflection.

Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections and self-understanding. It can be useful when attachment or abandonment concerns are part of the presenting difficulty.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That collaborative process may include trying techniques from different approaches and prioritising what feels most helpful for you.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. They also let people access someone who speaks English or Central Khmer even if they are outside the local area, which can make ongoing support more practical.
