About Chheayudh
Chheayudh Chhon greets people with a calm, attentive presence. He trained as a counsellor and is a Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He aims to make it easier to speak about hard things.
Sessions are warm, accepting and straightforward. He draws on three years of clinical experience and many more years working internationally in facilitation and mindfulness. Before qualifying he spent 17 years as a Theravada Buddhist monk, teaching meditation and leading group practice.
Background and approach
That background shapes how he listens and how he helps people build steadiness and awareness. In sessions he creates space to talk about stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and life changes. He also supports people coping with addictions, relationship or intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, career worries and self-esteem concerns.
Additional areas of focus include attachment issues, abandonment, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Chheayudh uses a blend of approaches tailored to each person. He may gently reflect what he hears, ask clarifying questions, and introduce practical skills from cognitive behavioural methods and mindfulness exercises.
Work can include values-focused exercises drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attention to emotional patterns from attachment-informed ways of working. Sessions are offered in English and Central Khmer and are available by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. People living outside the UK may also be able to work with him.

Online support
Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which approaches suit their goals and situation. Sessions can blend techniques so the plan evolves with what feels most helpful to the client.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions take less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to access therapy from different locations and to fit sessions around daily life.
