Yau Tak "Marco" Lee, BACP

Counsellor and BACP member Yau Tak "Marco" Lee has seven years' experience working in the United Kingdom. He helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger and depression. He also supports those facing relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, sleeping problems, parenting and career concerns. Sessions are offered in English, Mandarin and Cantonese and international clients are accepted.

Marco uses a mix of approaches in his work. He draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centred methods to look at how early relationships shape present patterns. He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and EMDR for trauma-related work. In sessions he listens, reflects and works with the person to try different ways of thinking and coping.

He often focuses on clearer communication, emotional regulation and practical coping skills. For people facing grief or major life change he offers pacing and exercises to work through strong emotions. For trauma and abuse he may include EMDR alongside grounding and breathing techniques to manage distress.

Marco describes his practice as humanistic and person-centred, keeping the client's experience central. He encourages small, manageable steps so people can test what helps and build confidence. Progress is reviewed together and plans are adjusted based on how someone responds.

For someone considering counselling, Marco recommends a simple first step of answering a short questionnaire and booking a first session. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
