About Chheayudh
Chheayudh Chhon is a counsellor who aims to listen first and help people talk through what matters most to them. He trained as a therapist and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He draws on his background as a meditation and mindfulness teacher to offer a calm, accepting presence.
Sessions are personal and paced to each person’s needs. Chheayudh focuses on practical conversation and building trust.
Background and approach
He may ask questions and reflect what he hears to help people notice patterns or new possibilities. He makes space for painful memories, life changes, grief and the daily stresses that wear people down. He works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, depression, addiction and relationship and intimacy worries.
He also supports people facing career decisions, body image and self-esteem concerns, and challenges like ADHD and bipolar issues. His earlier life as a Theravada Buddhist monk shaped his approach. For 17 years he led meditation and mindfulness practice and ran international facilitation work.
Those experiences inform a calm style and an acceptant attitude in sessions. In therapy he may use ideas from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and attachment-based work among other approaches. He offers meetings online and by phone, and can include mindfulness exercises when suitable.
The emphasis is on helping each person find clearer direction and more self-compassion.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on what matters to them. It encourages small actions that move life in a meaningful direction rather than trying to control every thought. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns and reduce distress. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of connecting with others and can help with intimacy and trust issues.Finding the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try methods that fit each person. Together they will review what helps and adjust the way they work as needed.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be used with lower bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging allow short check-ins or written reflection. These options give flexibility for quieter timing, shorter sessions or ongoing written support while keeping the focus on practical coping skills and emotional understanding.
