Yun-Ting Chou, BACP

Yun-Ting Chou, who sometimes goes by Tammy, is a relational counsellor who draws on a humanistic outlook and a blend of counselling and psychotherapy methods to support people through life transitions and emotional challenges. She offers a warm, compassionate, non-judgemental space where exploration and practical work sit alongside one another, aiming to help people make sense of their experiences and deepen their understanding of themselves.

Her practice is informed by an East Asian background, bringing cultural sensitivity and a broadened perspective to conversations about identity, family, and belonging. She is a member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which reflects her professional affiliation with a national counselling body.

Yun-Ting works with a wide range of concerns including relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and bereavement, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety, addictions, intimacy-related issues, parenting and anger, as well as career changes, depression, and compassion fatigue. She also focuses on attachment and abandonment issues, body image, commitment and control problems, isolation and loneliness, immigration-related challenges, and questions about life purpose and midlife transition.

Her background includes volunteering with Cruse Leeds supporting people through grief since 2022 and eight years of experience teaching Mandarin in school and private settings. Outside of practice she enjoys hiking, cooking and reading, values connection with others, and participates in UK-based peer support groups to continue developing her work. Having been a therapy client herself, she approaches the therapeutic relationship with empathy and an understanding of how beginning therapy can feel daunting yet meaningful.
