Background and approach

He combines that with cognitive and acceptance-based methods to shift unhelpful thoughts and bring attention back to values and action. His style is practical and calm. Chun Tat uses short exercises in sessions, gentle movement or breath awareness when useful, and plain conversation about what is getting in the way.

He aims to build simple tools clients can use between appointments. With four years of clinical experience, Chun Tat has focused on a range of issues including attachment and family of origin difficulties, caregiving stress, addiction concerns, grief and ageing-related matters. He uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy as part of his work.

Sessions are offered in English, Mandarin and Cantonese. Chun Tat is based in Australia and works with adults to develop clearer patterns, stronger coping and more satisfying everyday routines.

How somatic work and evidence-based therapy fit online

Somatic-informed therapy pays attention to the body and how emotions show up physically; simple breath work, grounding and awareness exercises can help people reduce tension and feel more present. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed actions, which can help with anxiety, stress and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to change patterns that keep problems going.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chun Tat treats it as a collaborative process and will discuss which methods suit the person's needs and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasise body-focused exercises, values-based goals or cognitive skills as therapy progresses.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. These formats allow people to practise grounding and breathing at home, reflect between sessions via messages, or use short chat check-ins when time is limited. The variety of options gives flexibility while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
