Wai Kan

Wai Kan is a counsellor who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety and grief. He works in a down-to-earth way and focuses on the person's strengths. He affirms that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life takes courage and offers steady support through that process.

Over nine years of practice in the United Kingdom have shaped his approach. He helps people with depression, relationship difficulties, sleeping problems and addiction-related concerns. He also supports people dealing with intimacy issues, self-esteem struggles, career stress and life changes, including coping after natural or human-caused disasters.

Wai draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy. In sessions he aims to make interventions simple and practical, using exercises, clear feedback and collaborative goal-setting. He encourages people to try small changes that fit their everyday life.

Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to talk through painful moments like grief, trauma or shame. He pays attention to patterns of thinking and relating, and works with clients to build more helpful habits. The focus is on what is useful now rather than labels or long technical explanations.

Wai accepts international clients and offers support in English. He describes himself as someone who listens closely, helps people identify strengths, and stays with them while they practise new ways of coping.
