Really thoughtful therapist, very good especially with a client who has never done therapy before, can recommend.

Wai is very kind and understanding, he listens to me empathetically without judgement and has suggested strategies that have been really helpful in balancing my stress levels outside of sessions.

Wai Kan has helped me profoundly. He has been able to listen to my issues without making me feel judged or different, and has fully understood what I needed from the first session. He has helped me to deal with all my problems and gave me advice that has helped me deal with them on a daily basis, I couldn't recommend him more.
