Counselling for Children, Young People & Adults

A warm and supportive counselling space for children, young people and adults exploring emotional wellbeing, identity, belonging, relationships and life's transitions.

Who I Work With

Adults

Supporting adults navigating emotional wellbeing, relationships, identity, life transitions and life's challenges.

Children & Young People

Supporting children and young people with emotional wellbeing, confidence, relationships, school pressures and the challenges of growing up.

Living Between Cultures

Supporting international students, adults and families navigating identity, belonging, home, cultural transitions and life across cultures.

Why People Seek Support

Sometimes there is a clear reason for seeking therapy. At other times, it may simply feel as though something has shifted and life has become harder to navigate alone.
 

You may be carrying the impact of difficult experiences, feeling anxious or overwhelmed, struggling in relationships, questioning where you belong, or finding it difficult to cope with the pressures around you.
 

Sometimes the impact of past experiences continues long after the event itself. Therapy offers a space to slow down, reflect and make sense of what is happening in a way that feels safe, supportive and grounded.

Jessica Chan, counsellor supporting adults, children and young people

Meet Jessica

Hi, I’m Jessica Chan, a BACP-registered counsellor working with children, young people and adults.

Having moved from Hong Kong to the UK as a teenager, I understand how cultural identity, family expectations and adapting to a new environment can shape emotional wellbeing and a sense of belonging. These experiences continue to inform my work with people navigating life between cultures.

Alongside my private practice, I have worked with adults, children and young people across counselling and wellbeing settings. My experience includes supporting people affected by trauma, difficult life experiences, identity, relationships and life transitions.

I offer a warm, collaborative and trauma-informed space where we can explore whatever may be troubling you at a pace that feels right for you.

Sessions are available in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.

I work with regular clinical supervision and in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework.

I believe therapy is most effective when it feels safe, collaborative and responsive to your individual needs.

 

I work in a humanistic and integrative way, meaning therapy is shaped around you rather than following a one-size-fits-all model. I work in a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive way, drawing on existential and cognitive behavioural perspectives where helpful.
Above all, I aim to create a space where you feel heard, understood and able to explore your experiences at a pace that feels right for you.
