About Hoi-Wing

Hoi-Wing Chan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. He also helps with grief, addiction, career difficulties, parenting concerns, intimacy problems, anger and self-esteem struggles. He speaks English and Cantonese and brings 11 years of professional experience to his work.

He treats each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Sessions are tailored to the individual's needs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on practical steps and on making sense of feelings and patterns that get in the way of change. Hoi-Wing uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences influence current behaviour and relationships. He also draws on Jungian therapy to attend to personal meaning and inner imagery, and uses mindfulness practices to build moment-to-moment awareness and manage stress.

In therapy he will work with clients to create a plan that fits their life and goals. That might mean shorter practical strategies or deeper exploratory work depending on the person. He aims to empower people to make changes at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

His approach is collaborative and straightforward. He encourages honest conversation and gentle challenge where needed. Taking the first step can feel hard, and he aims to make the process understandable and steady.

How Jungian, Mindfulness and Psychodynamic Work Online

Jungian therapy looks at personal meaning, symbols and dreams to help people make sense of inner conflicts and identity questions. Online sessions can use conversation and guided reflection to explore those images and themes in ways that feel relevant to daily life.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices and breathing techniques to reduce reactivity and manage stress. These skills translate well to video or phone sessions, with short guided exercises that can be practised between meetings.

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on patterns that repeat in relationships and feelings that come from earlier experiences. Over time online sessions support noticing those patterns and trying different ways of being with others and oneself.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and together decide which methods suit each person best. That collaborative decision can change as therapy progresses.

Online work offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or shorter exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care.
