Yun-Ting Chou, BACP

Yun-Ting Chou, who also goes by Tammy, is a relational and humanistic therapist based in the United Kingdom. She creates a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where people can explore relationship difficulties, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. Drawing on a blend of counselling and psychotherapy methods, Yun-Ting aims to help clients make sense of their experiences and develop insights and practical strategies that support growth and well-being.

Her practice is informed by an East Asian background, which brings added cultural sensitivity to work with issues such as immigration, racial identity, family dynamics, and cultural conflicts. Yun-Ting approaches therapy collaboratively, offering honest, respectful dialogue and tailoring tools and interventions to each person’s needs. She also focuses on areas like attachment and abandonment, communication and commitment struggles, body image, parenting, addiction, and compassion fatigue.

Yun-Ting has volunteered with Cruse Leeds supporting people through bereavement since 2022 and previously spent eight years teaching Mandarin in schools and private settings. She participates in UK-based peer support groups to continue professional development. Yun-Ting holds BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and provides therapy in English and Mandarin. She is accepting international clients and offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Attachment, Person-Centered and CBT Approaches Online

Yun-Ting integrates attachment-based work to explore how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand connection and abandonment issues, improve relationship dynamics, and build more secure ways of relating.

She also uses client-centered therapy, offering a compassionate, non-judgemental space where the client’s perspective guides the pace and focus of sessions. This approach supports self-exploration, emotional understanding, and personal growth across diverse concerns such as self-esteem, grief, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and to develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, stress, depression, and compulsive patterns. CBT provides structured tools that can complement deeper relational work.

Finding the right blend of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Yun-Ting works collaboratively with clients to determine which approaches best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as the work progresses.

Online therapy with Yun-Ting offers flexible access through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and at times that suit busy lives, while allowing ongoing continuity of care for both local and international clients.
