About Chheayudh
Chheayudh Chhon is a counsellor who offers a calm, attentive space to talk things through. He draws on three years of practice and his membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He aims to build a trusting relationship so people can speak honestly about what’s worrying them.
Chheayudh listens without judgement and helps people make sense of painful feelings. He welcomes conversations about grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, sexuality, and relationship or intimacy concerns.
Background and approach
He also supports those facing life changes, career questions, parenting strain and challenges linked to long-term illness or caregiving. Before training as a counsellor he spent 17 years working internationally as a Theravada Buddhist monk. During that time he taught meditation and mindfulness, and he uses those skills when they fit a person’s needs.
This background influences how he stays present and calm in sessions. Sessions are conversational and practical. He may ask questions, reflect what he hears and offer techniques from different approaches such as Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment work and cognitive methods.
The aim is to find what helps you manage feelings, behaviour and relationships more clearly. Chheayudh works with people in English and Central Khmer and welcomes international clients. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to his availability.

Online support
Approach and online support for emotional change
Chheayudh commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name their emotions, understand how feelings shape reactions, and work toward clearer, healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. This approach can be helpful for people dealing with loss, intense emotion, or repeating relational patterns.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match a person’s values. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, depression and making life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy is another strand he uses to look at how early bonds affect current relationships and emotion regulation, which can help with attachment issues and trust concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will listen to your concerns, goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working that feel right. Decisions about methods are collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to match what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging can fit around busy days. These options make it easier to get support from different places and at times that suit your routine.
