Chun Kong Sze Du, BACP

Chun Kong Sze Du is a trained counselor and Christian Methodist Pastor from Hong Kong who practices in the United Kingdom, bringing 13 years of experience to his work. He holds BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which indicates professional membership with a national counselling body. Fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin and English, he offers particular reassurance to Hong Kongers and other Cantonese speakers adapting to life in the UK.

He works with a broad range of concerns including relationship and family difficulties, grief and bereavement, intimacy issues, parenting challenges, stress, anxiety and depression, and the emotional impact of life changes. Drawing on a Rogerian, client-centered stance combined with system-level insight, he focuses on attentive listening and thoughtful processing of each personâs unique circumstances to support body-mind and spiritual wellbeing. Sessions commonly bring catharsis, greater calmness, and increased clarity as participants explore interpersonal conflicts, attachment and abandonment wounds, family-of-origin patterns, divorce and separation, immigration stress, and questions of life purpose. As both a counsellor and pastor, he integrates spiritual sensitivity with clinical techniques to help clients navigate transitions and rebuild a sense of balance and meaning.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening, acceptance and the clientâs own capacity for growth; it helps people explore personal values, improve self-esteem and address relationship or family concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, stress, low mood and coping with life changes. Mindfulness therapy introduces present-moment awareness and gentle attention to thoughts and feelings, which can support emotion regulation and lessen reactivity in moments of overwhelm.

The therapist approaches choice of method as a collaborative process - he will work with clients to identify which approaches best fit their needs, goals and preferences, and may combine techniques to suit each situation. This exploration is part of the therapeutic work rather than a one-time decision.

Online therapy with Chun Kong Sze Du is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility for busy lives, international schedules or those who prefer remote sessions. These options allow registered professionals to maintain continuity of care, adapt session formats as circumstances change, and make it easier for clients to engage in regular therapeutic work from different locations.
