Chun Tat Wong, AASW

Chun Tat Wong is an AASW social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and life transitions. He works with adults on issues such as trauma, anger, self-esteem, intimacy and career questions. Sessions can also cover ageing and caregiver stress, addiction concerns, and family of origin matters.

Chun uses practical, down-to-earth methods. He combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred listening to suit each person. He focuses on small, manageable steps people can try between sessions to reduce distress and test new ways of coping.

In sessions Chun places attention on emotions and relationships. He uses elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy when helpful to address strong feelings and improve communication. Work often includes noticing patterns, experimenting with new behaviours, and practising skills for emotional regulation.

Chun draws on four years of clinical experience in Australia and works in English, Mandarin and Cantonese. He aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk openly and find clearer direction. He encourages honest conversation about values, goals and practical obstacles.

People who are unsure where to begin can expect a straightforward assessment of concerns and priorities. Chun supports clients to set achievable goals and build routines that fit daily life, so change feels realistic rather than overwhelming.

How Chun’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, life transitions and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety and mood. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and the client's agenda, providing a respectful space to talk through concerns and clarify goals.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Chun will work with each person to see which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, and may combine techniques from different approaches as required. This helps tailor sessions to what is most helpful for the individual.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep continuity of care during life changes. Chun aims to adapt exercises and skill practice so they work effectively over distance and fit into everyday routines.
