Background and approach
Christine is comfortable discussing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, grief, depression, trauma and issues related to LGBT identity. Her practice also covers areas such as parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career change and coping with life transitions. Additional focuses include adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, autism and Asperger syndrome, and caregiver stress.

How her approaches shape online counselling
Christine uses person-centred methods alongside attachment-based and emotionally focused ideas. Person-centred work puts the person's experience first and helps them set goals at their own pace. It suits people who want to be heard and to decide what change looks like for them.Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help when relationship dynamics or attachment injuries are a concern. Emotionally focused work helps people name and work with strong feelings, and can be useful for grief, trauma responses and relationship distress.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the individual to pick methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can be adapted over time if different tools seem more helpful.
This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make evening appointments more practicable for people who need them. Registered or accredited professionals often use these benefits to help therapy fit into everyday routines.
