About Chris

Chris Cheung is a engineer dedicated to making art therapy approachable and relevant for modern life. With a focus on creative expression and mindfulness, Chris helps clients tap into their innate creativity as a tool for self-understanding and emotional balance.

Chris's therapeutic philosophy centres on the belief that the process of art-making — not just the finished product — holds transformative potential. Whether through drawing, painting, or mixed media, each session is an invitation to explore, reflect, and grow.

At Daily Lemons, Chris drives strategy and product development, while contributing articles and resources that demystify art therapy and inspire readers to integrate creative practices into their daily routines.

Daily Lemons White Papers

Discover Your Authentic Self on Daily Lemons

This white paper explains how the ten-exercise sequence “Discover Your Authentic Self on Daily Lemons” works as a progressive, art-therapy-informed pathway from recognition of the false self toward integration of the authentic self. It also describes how the sequence uses Daily Lemons’ six therapeutic pathways: emotional expression and containment, mindful embodiment, cognitive insight and identity work, trauma and resilience, creativity and mastery, and connection/co-regulation. The sequence is not about forcing a user to “find the real self” in one breakthrough. Instead, it creates a structured visual journey: first seeing the masks, then understanding where they came from, then meeting what was hidden, grieving what was lost, reclaiming disowned parts, and finally integrating the whole self into a coherent visual map.

This paper examines the design choices behind Daily Lemons™, a therapist-designed digital art therapy app created to make art-therapy-informed support accessible and effective in everyday digital use. It explores how guided structure, short sessions, nonverbal creation, trauma-informed pacing, user-led reflection, privacy safeguards, and optional therapist connection translate core art therapy mechanisms into a practical app experience.
