About Chris

Chris Wilson is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who uses a relational, integrative approach. He draws on several ways of working to shape sessions around what a person brings. Chris works with concerns such as stress and anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and major life changes.

He frames sessions in simple, practical terms. People can expect to talk through what matters to them, try small experiments between meetings, and build everyday habits that reduce distress.

Background and approach

The aim is to help people feel steadier and clearer about next steps in life. Chris has four years of experience and he has worked in a range of settings. That includes supporting people in custody with addiction, anger and trauma, and helping athletes and performers manage injury, retirement and transitions.

In independent practice he sees people facing varied challenges. Typical concerns include grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, career stress, addictions and body image worries. He also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care, attachment questions and control or commitment issues.

Sessions are offered in English and Chris is open to working with people beyond the UK. He describes himself as respectful and compassionate and aims to adapt his approach to each person's needs and goals.

How Chris's approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is often useful for anxiety, stress and situations where someone feels stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current bonds and trust. It can help with intimacy-related worries, attachment issues and family concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chris will talk with each person about what feels most useful and try methods that suit their goals and preferences. He treats this as a collaborative process and adjusts the way he works as the relationship and needs evolve.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Messaging and live chat offer flexibility for brief updates or when someone prefers written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, while keeping focus on the agreed goals and tasks between sessions.
