Chun Kong Sze Du trained as a counsellor and also serves as a Christian Methodist pastor who originally comes from Hong Kong. He has 13 years of experience and offers sessions in English, Mandarin and Cantonese. His background can be reassuring for people from Hong Kong who are adjusting to life in the United Kingdom and prefer Cantonese conversation.

He listens closely to each person and aims to help them make sense of difficult feelings.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on practical ways to manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and life transitions. He also helps people navigate relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stresses and family tensions. His approach is rooted in client-centred work with attention to systems and relationships.

He draws on cognitive behavioural and dialectical behaviour methods when useful to address unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills. Emotionally-focused ideas and mindfulness practices are also part of his toolbox. In a typical meeting he creates space for emotional release, calm reflection and clearer thinking.

He pays attention to the connection between body, mind and spiritual wellbeing as each person prefers. Sessions aim to leave people feeling more settled and able to make changes. Chun works with people on matters such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, communication problems, divorce and separation, fatherhood issues, immigration-related stress, infidelity and loneliness.

He also supports exploration of life purpose, forgiveness, guilt and family of origin concerns.

How Chun's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens with curiosity and follows the person's lead to build understanding and self-awareness. This approach helps when people need space to talk through grief, relationship worries or life transitions.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence. It is practical and problem-focused, useful for anxiety, low mood and stress management. Dialectical behaviour therapy, or DBT, brings skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance that can help when feelings feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Chun will discuss options and tailor methods to the individual's needs, goals and preferences. Decisions about which tools to use are made collaboratively during early sessions and reviewed as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text options work well for short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and different time zones with registered or accredited professionals.
