Background and approach
Sessions often focus on problem-solving, motivation techniques and small behaviour changes that add up over time. He uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. These methods are applied in clear, step-by-step ways so people can try new strategies between sessions and track progress.
People come for help with panic attacks, social anxiety, phobias, and trauma-related reactions as well as longer-standing mood and personality concerns. Guan also supports challenges linked to addiction, sleep and eating patterns, and compassion fatigue for helping professionals. Appointments can include practical exercises, guided reflection and motivational coaching.
He aims for sessions that feel straightforward and useful, focusing on changes clients can notice in their daily routines.
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based steps. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance and life transitions because it focuses on doing what matters despite uncomfortable feelings.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is often used for panic, phobias, depression and sleep or eating difficulties through structured exercises and between-session practice.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works together with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that may combine elements from different approaches as needs evolve.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video is best when seeing facial cues matters, while phone calls work well for quicker check-ins or lower bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework guidance and flexible conversations outside scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
