Christopher has been an incredible therapist throughout my journey. He is a great listener who creates a safe and comfortable space where I can openly express my thoughts and emotions without judgment. Working with him has helped me understand myself and my feelings on a much deeper level. In a relatively short time, I noticed significant personal growth and improvement in the way I handle my emotions and challenges. His guidance, patience, and ability to ask the right questions have given me valuable insights and practical tools that I use in my daily life. I genuinely feel more self-aware, more confident, and better equipped to navigate difficult situations. I highly recommend Christopher to anyone looking for a compassionate, professional, and supportive therapist. His impact on my life has been truly meaningful.

Hi, I'm Christopher Yeung, a BACP-registered Psychodynamic Therapist. I understand that reaching out for therapy isn't always easy. You might be struggling with anxiety, feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, experiencing difficulties in your relationships, or simply feeling that something in your life isn't quite right. Sometimes, you may not even know exactly what's troubling you, and that's completely okay.
My aim is to offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can speak openly, explore your thoughts and feelings, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself.
How I Can Help
I work with individuals experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including:
Anxiety, stress, and overthinking
Depression, low mood, and emotional numbness
Relationship difficulties, attachment, and trust
Low self-esteem, self-criticism, and feelings of inadequacy
Trauma, difficult childhood experiences, and emotional neglect
Grief, loss, and major life transitions
Loneliness, identity, and difficulties understanding or expressing emotions
You don't need to have a diagnosis or a clear explanation of what you're experiencing to benefit from therapy. Sometimes, simply having someone who genuinely listens and helps you make sense of your experiences can be an important starting point.
My Therapeutic Approach
My primary approach is psychodynamic therapy, which explores how our past experiences, relationships, and unconscious emotional patterns can influence how we think, feel, and relate to others today.
Together, we can begin to recognise recurring patterns, understand the feelings beneath them, and explore why certain situations or relationships may be particularly difficult.
I also incorporate elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) where appropriate, offering practical ways to manage difficult thoughts and emotions alongside deeper psychological exploration.
I believe therapy should be collaborative rather than prescriptive. I won't tell you how you should feel or make decisions for you. Instead, I'll work alongside you to understand your experiences, explore different perspectives, and help you find a way forward that feels right for you.
What You Can Expect From Our Sessions
My therapeutic style is warm, reflective, curious, and supportive. I value honesty, openness, and the therapeutic relationship we develop together.
Some sessions may involve exploring experiences from your childhood, while others may focus on something that happened yesterday or a difficulty you're facing right now. There's no expectation to discuss anything before you feel ready.
Whether you're looking for short-term support with a particular challenge or longer-term therapy to understand yourself more deeply, we can tailor our work to your needs and goals.
I also recognise how cultural backgrounds, family expectations, and personal experiences can shape our emotional lives. As someone who works across different cultural contexts, I aim to approach these differences with sensitivity and openness.
I offer therapy in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin.
Taking the First Step
You don't have to face everything alone, and you don't need to have all the answers before beginning therapy.
If you're looking for a space where you can feel heard, understood and supported while exploring what matters to you, I would welcome the opportunity to work with you.

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Honestly, I was very scared to start therapy but with Dr. Yeung, I have been learning so much about myself and working on myself and seeing myself in such a positive way even with just a few sessions that I can tell that this is something that’s gonna really help me! I’m very thankful and appreciative to have a such a great therapist
Chris uses an approach that focuses on understanding the deeper meaning behind behaviour. Through this, I came to understand why I do some of the things I do. He is very experienced with children, and I also consult him on my own personal growth challenges, family relationship issues, and children’s emotional problems. He always helps me uncover the deeper meaning behind these problems and behaviours. I would, hands down, 100% recommend him—especially if you are experiencing relationship difficulties, family issues, or parenting challenges.
Although not knowing Chris long, he has helped with listening to my past experiences and offering essential guidance and how to deal with situations.
Christopher is a very good listener, calm, and reassuring. I felt safe and understood during the session, and I noticed a sense of relief and comfort even after the first session. It felt easy to talk openly, and I’m looking forward to continuing the work together.
I love receiving therapy from Dr Chris. He has great knowledge and understanding and helps me through my difficulties within my mental health to ease my suffering. He is a wonderful Dr with a PhD and a good heart and I highly recommend using his service.
I haven’t been working with him for very long, but I have never felt so accepted and understood. I highly recommend.
Christopher is highly recommended. From the first session, it was easy to feel at ease. The therapist can listen without judgment and offers actionable strategies that change perspectives. The combination of empathy and practical advice is appreciated. There has been incredible progress and it is possible to handle life's challenges. This is a life-changing experience.
Christopher has been great to work with. In the time I have spent with him, he has helped me dive towards the core of my anxiety. I look forward to working with him further and would recommend him to others looking for clarity to the root cause of their anxiety.
Really glad to kickstart therapy again with Chris Yeung after two years of non-therapy ?Reassessing my self-worth and what it is I truly want without constraints, as well as to try daily journaling, is something I hope to work on before our next session! Looking forward☺️
Working with Christopher has been a deeply supportive experience. He creates space for genuine reflection: instead of giving ready-made answers, he asks thoughtful questions that helped me explore why I do what I do and arrive at my own insights. One thing that stands out is his careful, detailed communication. When I send longer messages, he responds with attention and depth—often in multiple thoughtful paragraphs, never a perfunctory one-liner. That consistency helped me feel heard. Christopher is a patient and active listener. In session (and in writing), he lets me finish my thoughts without rushing, and reflects back what he’s heard in a way that feels respectful and grounding. His understanding of Chinese culture has been especially meaningful for me. I grew up in a Western country with Chinese parents and often felt confused about differences in how love was expressed. Our conversations around cultural expectations and family patterns helped me make sense of those feelings and become more emotionally secure. Christopher also supports growth between sessions. When useful, he offers gentle “homework” options—like writing about emotions—so I can keep processing in my own time. Nothing is forced; it’s always an invitation. Overall, I’ve found our work together clarifying and encouraging. If you value a therapist who listens deeply, responds thoughtfully, and respects cultural context, you may find Christopher a good fit.
