About Christine
Over the past five years much of Christine's practice has focused on sexual abuse, including work with non-abusing parents of sexually abused children and with primary, secondary and complex trauma, both recent and historic. She has helped people process grief, manage harmful emotions and behaviours, and move through periods of stagnation toward renewed purpose and resilience. Her style is described as warm, holding and interactive, offering sensitivity and compassion while guiding clients toward insight and meaningful goals.
As an integrative practitioner Christine blends a person-centered stance with cognitive-behavioural techniques, humanistic and psychodynamic elements, transactional analysis, trauma-informed methods and solution-focused work to create tailored treatment plans. She holds BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and applies her skillset to make therapy a collaborative process that honours clients' strengths and priorities.
Approaches for online healing and personal growth
Christine uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, non-directive space where clients' experiences, values and choices guide the work; this approach supports self-exploration, increased self-awareness and emotional healing. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, low mood and behaviour that gets in the way of daily life. Narrative therapy is another tool in her practice, helping clients separate themselves from problems and re-author their life stories so they can find new meaning and perspective after trauma or major transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Christine works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine techniques in an individualized way, and Christine adapts her mix of approaches as the work progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, by phone, through live chat or via text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments. These options increase accessibility for people who need consistent support while balancing daily responsibilities and can make it simpler to maintain continuity of care over time.
