About Chris
Chris Sergeant is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strain. He supports people dealing with anger, low self-esteem, addiction, trauma, grief and life changes. He also works with issues like parenting concerns, intimacy-related problems and career questions.
Chris uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. He listens carefully and helps clients make sense of what they are feeling. Conversations aim to identify practical steps and new ways of coping rather than jargon or long theories.
Background and approach
He draws on several approaches to tailor the work to each person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and pace.
He also uses systemic and psychodynamic ideas where family patterns or past experiences matter. Chris is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He works with adults in the United Kingdom and carries out sessions online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.
Sessions sit within a subscription system that can be cancelled at any time. He has practical experience supporting people through addiction, post-traumatic stress, codependency and cultural belonging concerns. Whether someone is trying therapy for the first time or returning after previous work, Chris aims to help them find clearer steps forward and more reliable ways to cope.
Practical therapy approaches for online care
Chris commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy when working online. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and testing small changes that can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-Centred Therapy lets the person set the pace and topics, with the therapist offering empathetic listening and support to help clarify goals.He also draws on systemic and psychodynamic ideas when family patterns or past experiences shape current difficulties. Those approaches look at relationships and earlier life events to understand how they influence present feelings and reactions. The therapist will talk with each person about which mix of approaches makes sense and will adapt the plan as the work progresses in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls suit conversations that benefit from visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging offers shorter check-ins or ongoing support between calls. These options help people fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities or travel and make it simpler to keep continuity between appointments.
