Background and approach

She asks gentle questions to shine a light on old rules and habits. That makes it easier to choose different responses in day-to-day life. She describes counselling as a catalyst for change.

Change can feel scary, but it can also be quick and effective when guided carefully. Christina helps people weigh options and try new ways of coping without pressure. Compassion is central to her work.

She offers a calm space to notice difficult thoughts and feelings, and to treat them with kindness. That practical kindness often helps people slowly reclaim energy and clarity. When stress, grief or relationship pain makes it hard to speak, Christina aims to help people find words again.

Her approach supports people through times of loss, career shifts, sleep problems and relationship difficulty. Sessions are carried out in English and tailored to each person’s needs.

How Christina’s approaches work online

Christina uses Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred work alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to support people online. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people notice patterns that repeat. Client-Centred work focuses on listening and acceptance so people feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify thoughts and behaviours that keep anxiety or low mood going, and then tests small practical changes.

Choosing the right approach is something Christina does together with each person. At the start she will talk about your goals and preferences, try ideas in sessions and adjust the focus as you learn what helps. This collaborative process aims to match methods to the needs you bring rather than imposing one fixed plan.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face to face when conversation and visual cues are important. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day or to reflect in writing. These formats let people access consistent support from home or work and fit therapy around daily commitments.
