About Christine
Christine Willis is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. She supports those dealing with depression, addiction and relationship struggles. Her tone is warm and non-judgemental and she aims to make the first step feel easier.
She uses a blend of approaches to suit each person. Cognitive behavioural therapy, client-centred work and psychodynamic ideas are brought into sessions as needed. Christine listens first to understand what matters most to the client, then offers practical steps to try between meetings.
Background and approach
Sessions are straightforward and focused on the here and now as well as longer patterns that may be affecting mood and relationships. Christine works with issues such as trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, career stress, and major life changes. She also addresses attachment difficulties, codependency, and complicated grief.
With eight years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Christine draws on practical tools and reflective conversation. She aims for clear goals and regular review so progress is visible. People meet her to talk through feelings of isolation, control issues, guilt and shame, self-harm thoughts, or problems with substance use.
The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs, with an emphasis on making everyday life more manageable.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online care
Christine blends client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy to meet practical and emotional needs. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions; it is useful for building confidence and talking through difficult feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers concrete strategies to reduce anxiety and manage mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods to a person's goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can change as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which help therapy fit around daily life. Video lets people use visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging works well for ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep continuity while balancing work, family and other commitments.
