About Sze
Sze Kan Aemiliana Cheung is a registered psychodrama psychotherapist with NCPS and has four years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also lists areas such as abandonment, attachment issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, body image, communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, self-love, somatisation and women's issues.
She draws on psychodrama methods alongside psychodynamic and existentialist thinking. Sessions use creative and spontaneous techniques that invite people to try things out rather than only talk about them. Practical exercises, role work and storytelling are common tools she uses in session.
Sze Kan moved to the United Kingdom from Hong Kong in 2021 and works in English, Mandarin and Cantonese. Outside therapy she co-directs a community theatre charity that uses playback theatre and performance to bring stories to life. That community work informs how she uses creative methods in clinical work.
In sessions she treats clients as the expert of their own story and looks for existing strengths to build on. Conversations are guided by the client's concerns and goals, with activities chosen when they seem helpful. People who want to address feelings of guilt or shame can expect direct, practical ways to try out different responses to those feelings.
Practical matters such as scheduling and the subscription-based payment model are handled through the platform. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session.
How psychodrama and psychodynamic work translate to online sessions
Psychodrama brings scenes and roles into the room, using role-play, enactment and storytelling to help people see and try different ways of responding. Online sessions can include verbal role work and imaginative exercises that achieve a similar effect without needing props. Psychodynamic approaches focus on patterns, history and meaning, helping people notice repeated feelings and reactions and try to understand their origins. That kind of reflective work can be managed in conversation online and paired with short practical exercises.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss what matters most to the client, try out methods that fit their goals, and adapt over time based on what helps. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions can be adjusted toward clearer, more usable steps rather than fixed techniques.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or longer therapeutic blocks depending on what a person needs. Confirm the exact session formats and scheduling options before booking, as the profile does not list specific online formats. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use online work to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult.
