About Chris
Chris Allen is a counsellor who has worked in clinical practice for three years and has run his own business for the past year. He offers a calm, down-to-earth presence and aims to make it easier for people to talk about what is worrying them. He often encourages men to speak openly about feelings they might otherwise hold back.
Sessions are relaxed but supportive. Chris listens without judgement and uses empathy and genuineness to help people find their own way forward.
Background and approach
He believes each person brings a unique story and that the client is the expert on their life. Common issues he talks through include anxiety, stress, depression, relationship problems and grief. He also works with people facing trauma, addiction, eating concerns and self-esteem struggles.
Additional focuses include parenting and family tensions, body image and communication problems. Chris aims to help people process past pain so they can make clearer choices about the future. That might mean working through a difficult breakup, coping with job loss or coming to terms with long-standing hurt.
His goal is to support clients so they can decide what comes next for themselves. He offers help in English and accepts international clients. Sessions are available in a range of online formats so people can choose what fits their routine and needs.
How client-centred therapy works online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and offering a non-judgemental space. The counsellor aims to reflect what the client says, show empathy and give them room to reach their own conclusions. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and coping with life changes.Working online, the therapist will treat choosing an approach as a shared process. They will talk with the client about goals and preferences and adapt the way they work as understanding grows. That collaborative way of working helps make sure the method fits the person rather than the other way around.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and hold fuller conversations. Phone sessions suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, flexible timing and for people who find writing easier than speaking. These choices make therapy easier to fit around work, family and travel commitments.
