About Chris
Chris aims to make the first step into therapy straightforward. He creates a calm space where people can talk about what is worrying them. He listens without judgement and helps clients name what they are feeling. Sessions focus on small, practical steps that fit into everyday life.
His approach brings together person-centred listening with clear goals. That means the conversation begins with what matters to the client and then looks at ways to move forward. He uses elements of cognitive behavioural work to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. He also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify strengths and immediate strategies that can make a difference.
Chris has worked with a wide range of concerns including addiction, ADHD, eating and body image issues, trauma and abuse, and a range of personality and attachment difficulties. He also supports people exploring BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture and those with intimacy-related worries. He welcomes international clients and sessions are offered in English.
To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. From there they can schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability and the site's booking system.
How these approaches shape online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and supporting the client's own goals. The therapist follows what the person brings to sessions and helps them find their own way forward, which can be useful for low mood, grief and identity concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going. It uses simple exercises and realistic homework to help reduce anxiety, tackle unhelpful thinking and build coping strategies.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on strengths and small changes that lead to progress. Conversations aim to identify what is already working and to build practical steps that can be tried between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help the client test what feels most useful and adjust the focus as goals change. This is a collaborative process based on the client's needs, preferences and pace.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited and options for quieter, less intensive contact when needed. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available and how they might fit into daily life.
