About Chris
Chris Callahan-Brown is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress and anxiety. He also offers support for relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and depression. He aims to make it easier to talk about painful or confusing feelings so people can take the next step forward.
He creates a calm, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters most to the client.
Background and approach
Chris listens closely, reflects what he hears, and helps people make sense of difficult moments. He uses practical approaches to help people find relief from overwhelming emotions. That can include noticing patterns in thinking and behaviour and testing small changes to see what helps.
Sessions are tailored to each person rather than following a fixed script. Chris holds BACP accreditation, which means he is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has three years of professional experience working with adults on a range of concerns including addictions, anger, and coping with life changes.
Work can focus on short-term goals or longer personal development depending on what someone wants. People may explore how past experiences shape current reactions, practise new ways of responding, and set realistic steps to improve day-to-day life. Chris welcomes people who prefer to work remotely as well as those who want different session formats.
How therapy approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your experience through listening and reflection. It helps people feel heard and build confidence to explore difficult feelings in their own time.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to test new ways of thinking and coping with anxiety or low mood.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying achievable goals and the steps that lead toward them. It can be useful when someone wants short-term change and clear next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with you and choose methods based on your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where plans are reviewed and adjusted as needed.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video works well for deeper conversation, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities or travel, and offer flexibility in how people engage with support.
