About Wing
Wing Yau is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 11 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, anger, addictions and life changes. She also supports people with grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep and eating difficulties, self-esteem and career questions.
Wing uses clear, straightforward talking and practical exercises in sessions. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). That means conversations focus on thoughts, feelings and patterns, and on building skills to manage strong emotions and difficult situations.
Clients who need help with relationship problems will find work on communication and rebuilding trust. For those coping with change, sessions look at strategies to manage stress and make decisions that fit daily life. When trauma, grief or addiction are part of the picture, Wing addresses them alongside the current challenges rather than treating them as separate issues.
She offers counselling in English, Mandarin and Cantonese. Wing has experience supporting people affected by ADHD, attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care issues, body image concerns and caregiver stress. Her practice also covers a wide range of other concerns including bipolar and co-morbidity problems.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting. Sessions are run via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and exact fees vary with location.
How Wing uses evidence-based approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and gives practical exercises to reduce worry and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people change how they relate to others when past hurts affect current bonds.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wing will discuss your goals and preferences, and together you can try techniques from different methods to see what fits. That collaborative process helps shape what happens in sessions as needs evolve.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting counselling around study and work, reducing travel time and making it easier to attend from different locations. Session formats supported here are not listed in the supplied biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt exercises and short skills practice to work well on video or audio, and Wing can explain how a session will run when you schedule the first meeting.
