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.

Wai is a great therapist. I have had a few therapy experiences before and I always felt I wasn’t able to get to the bottom of the problem, and felt misunderstood.
Currently however, I am making progress and feeling better than ever. I understand my emotions and feel listened to
