About Soyi

Soyi Chong is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem, motivation problems and big life changes. Young adult issues are a focus, so she often supports people navigating the early steps of independence and identity. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not currently accepted.

Soyi uses a client-centred approach that treats the person as the expert of their own story. In practical terms this means listening closely, reflecting what matters, and helping people notice strengths they already have. Conversations are aimed at helping someone sort through feelings and make clearer choices rather than prescribing one fixed solution.

Typical topics include managing the pressure of study or early career, building confidence, improving communication in relationships and handling shifts like moving out or changing roles. She pays attention to how everyday choices affect mood, motivation and intimacy. Work in sessions often involves talking through practical steps and small experiments to try between meetings.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then book an initial session. If you want to check session types on offer, confirm current options before scheduling.

Client-centred approaches and online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, accepting the person’s perspective and reflecting what matters to them. It helps people who feel stuck by clarifying values and strengths, supporting clearer decisions about relationships, work and identity.

In practice, sessions are conversational. The therapist follows the person’s lead, asks questions to deepen understanding and offers observations that can highlight existing resources. This approach can help with stress, anxiety, self-esteem and issues tied to major life changes common in early adulthood.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together based on the client’s concerns, goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include adjusting the focus over time as needs change.

The original profile does not specify session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work or travel, reduce time spent commuting and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote sessions to keep continuity of care when life circumstances make in-person meetings difficult.
