About Christian
Christian Jackson is a counsellor with seven years' experience based in the United Kingdom. He focuses on anxiety and stress alongside issues like addiction, trauma, low self-esteem and depression. He wants people to know that starting therapy is a brave step and that their own strengths matter in the work ahead.
He approaches sessions by listening first and asking practical questions. Conversations aim to make difficult feelings clearer and to find small, achievable steps forward.
Background and approach
He encourages people to connect what matters to them with realistic goals for change. Christian uses several therapy styles depending on the person's needs. Cognitive behavioural methods help identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to live in line with their values while accepting hard emotions. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, especially in close relationships and intimacy. Client-centred therapy keeps the person’s priorities at the heart of sessions, with the counsellor offering a steady, non-judgemental presence.
He has supported people through grief, relationship strain, career uncertainty and major life changes. His approach is collaborative and practical, aiming to build coping skills and clearer direction. If someone prefers online or phone sessions there are flexible options to fit different schedules.
How Christian's approaches translate to online therapy
Christian uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT sessions often include practical exercises and simple homework to try between meetings, which can be discussed over video or messages.He also works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on what matters to a person and building actions that reflect their values despite difficult feelings. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes and adapts well to both live sessions and written exchanges.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk through preferences, needs and goals and then suggest methods to try together. They will review what is helping and adjust the plan as sessions progress.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls are close to face-to-face work and allow shared exercises and real-time conversation. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when being off-camera helps concentration. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, reflective writing and flexible scheduling. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
