About Christina

Counsellor and BACP member Christina Caffrey has 12 years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and helps people with stress, anxiety, grief, intimacy-related issues and depression. She presents herself as someone who respects each person's experience and draws on clients' existing strengths to work through challenges.

Christina uses a client-centred way of working. She treats people as the experts in their own story and follows their lead while offering reflective feedback. This approach suits people who want a calm, steady conversation and practical ways to make changes.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current feelings and patterns. That can be useful for people troubled by relationship difficulties, intimacy worries or long-standing patterns of avoidance or mistrust.

Mindfulness techniques appear in her work to help with stress, anxiety and sleep problems. These are simple practices to bring attention back to the present and to reduce overwhelming emotions in the moment.

Narrative ideas are used to separate a person from their difficulties and to rewrite how problems are understood. Motivational interviewing helps when someone wants to make a change but feels unsure how to begin. Christina combines these approaches to match the needs someone brings to a session.

She works in English and does not take international clients. Practical details such as cost, exact session formats and how to book are provided through the site's sign-up process.

Using attachment, client-centred and mindfulness approaches online

Christina combines client-centred work with attachment-based ideas and simple mindfulness practices. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening, reflection and helping someone follow their own priorities. It suits people who want a conversational style and space to explore feelings.

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and relationship habits. This can help with intimacy issues, trust and repeated relationship difficulties. Mindfulness therapy offers short attention and breathing exercises to manage anxiety, stress and sleep disruption in the moment.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and happens together. Christina will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods over time. The process is collaborative and paced to the individual's needs.

The therapist's exact session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed and let someone choose not to be on camera if that helps them engage.
