About Chun

Chun Tat Wong is an AASW counsellor with four years of experience based in Australia. He supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, intimacy-related concerns and career questions. He speaks English, Mandarin and Cantonese.

Chun Tat uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. He listens and helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Then he suggests small, manageable steps they can try between meetings. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change next, not long lectures.

His work draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and increase actions that matter. Emotionally-Focused Therapy tools are used to better identify feelings in relationship-related issues.

People who come with trauma, grief or complicated family history can expect calm, paced conversations. Chun Tat pays attention to how life events, caring roles and ageing affect mood and choices. He also helps with problems linked to alcohol or drug use and separation.

Sessions include talking, practical exercises and short behavioural experiments. Chun Tat encourages steady progress through repeated practice and review. To start, he asks a few questions about current concerns and goals so the first session can focus on what feels most pressing.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Online work using ACT often focuses on small experiments and values-based goals that can be practised between sessions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses simple exercises to test and change patterns. Online CBT typically involves worksheets, thought records and graded exposure tasks you can do in daily life. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and name feelings that matter in close relationships and can guide clearer communication and repair efforts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chun Tat will discuss these methods with each person and decide together which ones fit best for current goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can be reviewed as progress is made.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel. They also allow short check-ins or longer sessions without the need to travel, and can support work on behavioural experiments that happen between meetings.
