Yau Tak "Marco" Lee , BACP

Yau Tak 'Marco' Lee is a qualified counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the UK professional body for counsellors. He brings a humanistic orientation to his work, emphasising empathy and compassion while recognising that each person carries unique strengths and life experiences.

Marco draws on a blend of therapeutic methods tailored to each client's needs, including person-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), emotional freedom technique (EFT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), and mindfulness. He applies these approaches to relationship and attachment concerns, trauma and abuse, anxiety and depression, and other presenting issues, adapting interventions to different attachment styles and individual goals.

Many clients have reported feeling noticeably more positive after sessions, and Marco frames therapy as an investment in longer-term wellbeing. His practice aims to provide a supportive, secure, and personal environment where people can explore thoughts and feelings, build confidence and self-value, and develop practical skills to manage future challenges and promote continued personal growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating formed in early bonds and explores how those patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses. It can be especially helpful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and difficulties with trust and closeness.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises respect for the individual's experience and supports growth through empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard. This approach helps people build self-esteem, self-awareness, and the confidence to navigate life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, supporting relief from anxiety, depression, and stress while teaching concrete coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be a collaborative effort between client and therapist. Licensed professionals work with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then adapt methods over time to find the best fit.

Online therapy using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging increases flexibility and access to care. These formats allow clients to receive regular support from therapists without travel, fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care across distances, making it easier to engage in consistent, effective work.
