Christopher Robertson, BACP
Practical, thoughtful counselling for life challenges
Book with ChristopherAbout Christopher
Christopher Robertson is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. He helps people who are dealing with grief, trauma, anxiety, low self-esteem and major life changes. He offers a calm, steady presence and invites straightforward conversations about what is hard right now.
He focuses on finding the root of what is causing distress and on building practical ways to cope day to day. Sessions aim to help people better understand themselves and the patterns that keep them stuck.
Background and approach
Christopher uses listening and reflective dialogue to make space for difficult emotions and new perspectives. He has worked with a broad range of concerns including addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, eating difficulties, parenting strain and career pressures. Christopher also supports people navigating LGBT-related matters and identity questions.
He pays attention to how shame, guilt and isolation affect choices and relationships. Christopher practises using client-centred, existential and mindfulness approaches. That means he centres the person in front of him, explores meaning and values, and draws on mindful awareness to manage distress.
Sessions tend to be practical and conversational, with time set aside for simple tools people can use between appointments. People who prefer honest, down-to-earth counselling may find his style useful. To start, he asks clients to reflect on what matters most to them and then works with those priorities when planning the next steps.

How his approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the session. The counsellor listens without judgement and reflects back what he hears, helping the client make sense of their feelings and choices. Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, values and life purpose; it helps when people are wrestling with big questions or a sense of emptiness. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce anxiety and bring clearer thinking in moments of distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christopher will discuss what matters to the client and try different ways of working until something feels helpful. He aims to tailor sessions to a person's goals and preferences, making decisions together about focus and techniques.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make fitting counselling into a busy life easier by removing travel time and allowing appointments from wherever a person is that day. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions at times that suit work and family schedules. Registered or accredited professionals can use these benefits to help clients maintain continuity of care and practice new skills between sessions.
