Chheayudh Chhon , BACP

Chheayudh Chhon is a counsellor who offers a calm, listening presence for people facing hard moments. He introduces himself warmly and focuses on building trust so clients can speak honestly about what matters most to them. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

He draws on three years of professional practice alongside many earlier years as a Theravada Buddhist monk. That background included facilitation, meditation and mindfulness teaching, and it shapes how he sits with people now. He uses those skills when they suit a person's needs, for example to support grounding and present-moment awareness.

Sessions are conversational and straightforward. He will sometimes ask questions and at other times reflect back what he has heard. He mixes approaches from different therapies to match the situation, keeping the work focused on practical steps and clearer thinking.

People often come with stress, anxiety, grief or difficulties from past trauma. He also supports concerns such as relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, substance use, self-esteem and identity questions, and challenges around sleep or eating. He works with issues linked to attachment, abandonment, chronic illness, and other long-standing difficulties.

Chheayudh offers sessions in English and Central Khmer and works with people in the United Kingdom as well as international clients. Therapy can be delivered by video, phone, live chat or text messaging and he will help you choose the best fit for your routine and needs.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Chheayudh commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in his online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and decide what matters most to them so they can take practical steps. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape present feelings and connections, which can help with intimacy and attachment concerns.

He treats finding the right approach as a shared process. In the first sessions he will talk through your goals and preferences, and together you will try ways of working that feel most useful. The plan can change as you learn which methods help you feel steadier and more able to cope.

Online therapy here is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video fits deeper conversations when seeing facial cues matters, while phone calls can work when a quieter, hands-free option is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, coaching-style support or when you need flexible, brief contact during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life or when you are travelling.
