About Hoi-Wing

Hoi-Wing Chan is a psychotherapist who helps people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and difficulties with career or parenting. He also supports people dealing with grief, addiction, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD and the stress of life changes. Hoi-Wing works in English and Cantonese and practises from a UK base.

He uses a blend of Jungian ideas, mindfulness and psychodynamic thinking to guide sessions. That means conversations can look at patterns from your past, present moment awareness, and imagery or symbols that matter to you.

Online support

Approaches that suit online therapy

Jungian-informed work looks at personal stories, recurring images and symbols that shape how someone feels. It can help people understand deeper patterns behind anxiety, depression or difficulty with relationships. Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention exercises and grounding techniques to reduce stress and improve focus. It is useful for managing anxiety, anger and urges linked to addiction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then suggest whether Jungian ideas, mindfulness practice or psychodynamic reflection fits best. This is a collaborative process and plans evolve as progress is made.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared visual materials. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, written reflection or to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep continuity and fit sessions around work or family commitments.
