Background and approach

She now runs a independent practice from the United Kingdom and works with adults and young people. Sessions aim to make difficult feelings easier to name and understand. Christine uses a person-centred way of working while drawing on cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and emotionally focused methods when they suit someone.

Conversations often include noticing patterns, testing small changes, and learning new ways to respond to painful thoughts. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Christine helps people decide what format fits their life and goals.

She also supports people who want short-term coaching style work or longer therapeutic work. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions. Christine aims to create a calm space to talk through trouble, build coping skills and find clearer ways forward.

Practical approaches and online therapy options

Christine uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. ACT focuses on values and doing what matters even when feelings are hard, while CBT targets specific thoughts and behaviours to reduce distress and build coping skills.

She also works in a person-centred way, offering a respectful, non-judgemental space where the client directs the pace and focus. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work - the therapist and client decide together which approaches fit the person's goals and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can suit times with lower bandwidth, live chat is handy for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between meetings. These options help therapy fit around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional support.
