Christine Fleming , NCPS

Christine Fleming is a UK-based counsellor with three years of professional experience and an accredited registrant member of The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She has supported volunteers and clients through two separate counselling charities, offering help both in person and online.

Her practice focuses on stress, anxiety, depression and the lasting effects of pregnancy or infant loss, and she also works with issues such as grief, self-esteem and life transitions. Christine combines empathy with practical approaches to help clients explore their thoughts and emotions.

She aims to create a welcoming space where feelings can be expressed without judgment and where empathy is evident in every session. Recognising that beginning therapy can be the hardest step, Christine accompanies clients throughout their journey, offering steady support as they work toward clearer understanding and coping strategies.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy

Christine integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based techniques into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective, offering empathy and space for self-exploration to support issues like self-esteem, grief and life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and introduces practical strategies to manage anxiety, panic and depressive symptoms. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and calming practices that can reduce stress and support recovery from trauma or difficult life events.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christine works with clients to explore which methods match their goals, needs and preferences, adapting techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and effective. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine elements from different approaches to tailor care to each person.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving or mobility constraints. These options make it easier to attend regular appointments, try different formats, and maintain continuity of care while fitting therapy into everyday life.
