Sze Kan Aemiliana Cheung, NCPS

Sze Kan Aemiliana Cheung helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. She introduces practical ways to cope with life changes and supports people working on self-worth and motivation. She speaks English, Mandarin and Cantonese and works with clients across borders.

She draws on psychodrama techniques that use action, role and storytelling to bring difficult feelings into view. Her style values creativity and spontaneity, and she mixes that with psychodynamic and existential ideas to understand how past patterns shape current choices. Sessions often invite gentle experiments that let people try new ways of being and relating.

Cheung notices themes such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and isolation, and she helps people with body image, somatic symptoms and trauma responses. She also supports exploration of life purpose, forgiveness, guilt and shame in plain, practical ways. Work can include role plays, guided reflection and discussion about patterns that repeat.

She co-directs a community theatre charity that uses playback theatre and storytelling, and this informs her use of creativity in therapy. That background gives her extra experience in storytelling and performance as tools for change. Her approach suits people who prefer action-based and narrative methods.

With four years of professional practice and NCPS listed as a credential, she aims to meet each person where they are. She encourages small steps, clear goals and collaborative planning so progress feels manageable and real.

How creative approaches work online

Psychodrama brings feelings and relationships to life through role and storytelling. In online sessions this can mean acting out short scenes on video, using imagined dialogue or role reversal to better understand difficult interactions. It helps people with relationship patterns, attachment issues and processing loss.

Psychodynamic ideas look at how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. A therapist will gently highlight repeating patterns and support reflection so people can try different responses. This approach often suits issues like longstanding anxiety, shame or unresolved grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as needed to find what helps best.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow for live role work and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for people who prefer writing, want ongoing check-ins, or need more frequent brief support. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
