Sze Kan Aemiliana Cheung helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. She supports people who are struggling with life changes and who want to build confidence and coping skills. She speaks English, Mandarin and Cantonese and works with international clients from the United Kingdom.

She brings creativity and spontaneity into counselling. Her background combines psychodrama methods with psychodynamic and existential ideas. Sessions often use role-play, storytelling and imaginative exercises alongside talking therapy to make feelings easier to notice and name.

Background and approach

Sze Kan has four years of professional experience. She uses practical activities to help people explore attachment, abandonment and communication problems. She also supports work around body image, self-love, shame and guilt, and issues that can appear as physical symptoms such as somatisation.

Her community work includes co-directing a theatre charity that runs Playback Theatre and storytelling projects. That experience shapes how she uses performance and narrative to open new ways of seeing personal problems and relationships. In sessions she aims to help people find their own strengths and make steps towards change.

She encourages gentle experimentation with new behaviours and supports people to notice what helps them feel more confident and connected. Appointments combine practical exercises, guided reflection and everyday talk. The focus is on usable steps people can try between sessions to build coping skills and greater self-understanding.

How creative approaches translate to online therapy

Psychodrama uses role-play and enactment to explore feelings and relationships. In practice a client might act out a scene or take different roles to see patterns in interactions and try new responses. This method can be helpful for relationship concerns, attachment problems and working through unresolved grief.

Psychodynamic-informed work looks at recurring emotional patterns and the meanings people give to their experiences. It helps people understand why certain feelings or reactions keep returning and supports building different, healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will discuss ideas and try methods that feel suitable for a person’s goals and comfort. Plans are adjusted as therapy progresses so the work fits the client’s needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow for face-to-face interaction and role-play exercises over distance. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and are useful when a camera is not convenient. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use shorter written sessions when that format suits their routine. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family or travel and to keep continuity when location changes.
