Warm listener with mindfulness background
About Chheayudh
Chheayudh Chhon introduces himself as a counsellor who listens first. He aims to create a warm, accepting space where people can talk about whatever is worrying them. He is a Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP, and brings three years of professional counselling experience to his work.
Chheayudh draws on a long background as a Theravada Buddhist monk and a meditation and mindfulness teacher.
Background and approach
That experience shaped his approach and helps him relate to people from different walks of life. He often uses mindfulness alongside talking therapies when it suits a person's needs. Sessions are conversational and straightforward.
He asks questions, reflects back what he hears, and works alongside the person to clarify problems and goals. The focus is on building trust and helping someone feel able to talk about difficult thoughts and memories.
Chheayudh works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief and depression, and he also supports people facing life transitions, relationship difficulties, addictions and issues around identity. He can also help with practical difficulties like sleeping or eating problems and workplace stress. He offers sessions in English and Central Khmer and accepts international clients.
The counselling style is adaptable - Chheayudh mixes client-centred listening with evidence-informed methods such as cognitive approaches and acceptance-based techniques. He aims to help people find clearer direction, greater self-compassion and practical ways to cope. To begin, a short matching process and scheduling step connect a person to his sessions.
Costs vary by location and use a cancellable subscription model.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them. It focuses on identifying values and taking small, meaningful steps towards them, which can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, useful for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating difficulties.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in adult life. It can help people understand trust, intimacy and communication problems and build more helpful ways of relating.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods and adjust them so the sessions meet the person’s needs.
Online sessions can be flexible to fit a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in, and live chat or text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need ongoing check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or different time zones, while keeping the focus on practical ways to move forward.
