About Chheayudh
Chheayudh Chhon introduces himself simply as Yut and offers a listening ear for people who need to talk. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He aims to create a warm, accepting space where clients can speak without fear of judgement and begin to make sense of what they are facing.
He draws on three years of clinical work alongside many years of earlier experience as a Theravada Buddhist monk. That background included leading meditation and mindfulness sessions and facilitating groups internationally. Those years influence how he holds presence in conversation and how he brings attention to everyday thoughts and habits.
In sessions he works collaboratively and simply. He may ask questions and reflect back what he hears. He also uses ideas from several talking therapies, adjusting them to fit the person in front of him rather than following a fixed script.
Practical tools such as grounding, mindful attention, and concrete behaviour experiments may be combined with discussion about past experiences and current patterns. This can help people with stress, anxiety, grief, low mood, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and other issues listed in his profile.
He offers support in English and Central Khmer and is open to working with international clients. If someone prefers a therapist who mixes conversational listening with mindfulness and everyday habit work, he may be a good match.

Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and focuses on acting in ways that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and uses practical experiments to shift everyday habits and thinking. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people rework ways of relating that no longer serve them.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which ideas to try first. This is a collaborative process and may combine mindfulness, talking, and practical habit changes to suit each person.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in on a lunch break, not needing to travel, or avoiding heavy internet use by choosing audio-first contact where available. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use these approaches, often find remote sessions help people keep continuity of care and apply new habits between meetings.
