Yun-Ting Chou , BACP

Yun-Ting Chou, who also uses the name Tammy, is a BACP-accredited counsellor based in the United Kingdom with a particular focus on relationships, family dynamics, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions. She combines relational and humanistic sensibilities with practical psychotherapy methods to help people make sense of difficult experiences and develop clearer self-understanding. Her practice draws on an East Asian background, offering cultural sensitivity and a broadened perspective when exploring issues such as immigration, racial identity, and family conflict.

Yun-Ting creates a warm, non-judging environment where honest, collaborative work is central. Sessions emphasize both deep exploration and concrete strategies, tailored to each person’s needs - whether the concern is anxiety, depression, coping with loss, addiction, intimacy-related struggles, or challenges with parenting and career. She offers tools and insights aimed at growth while respecting each client’s pace and preferences.

Her professional involvement includes volunteering with Cruse Leeds to support people experiencing grief since 2022, and a previous eight-year career teaching Mandarin in schools and private settings. Outside of practice she enjoys hiking, cooking, reading, and connecting with others, and she participates in peer support groups with UK-based therapists to continue developing her skills. Yun-Ting is accredited by the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).

Relational approaches and accessible online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early attachment experiences shape current relationship patterns. It helps people explore connection, separation, abandonment concerns, and patterns that affect intimacy and trust in adult relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy is a humanistic approach that centers the person’s perspective, offering empathetic listening and acceptance to support self-exploration and personal growth. This approach suits people seeking a supportive space to understand emotions, identity, or life purpose.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It can be helpful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. Yun-Ting will work with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and needs, and together they will adapt methods to find the right therapeutic path.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility and easier access to support. These formats make it possible to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity when travel or relocation occurs, and connect with licensed professionals and therapists regardless of geography.
