He draws on client-centred work to follow the person’s priorities and pace. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when helpful to spot patterns in thinking and behaviour. Solution-focused strategies support quick, practical goal setting and progress tracking.

Chris trained and works in the United Kingdom and holds BACP as a listed credential. He has three years of professional experience supporting a range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image and sexual culture issues such as kink and BDSM.

Sessions are conversational and goal-aware. People who come to him can expect a mix of listening, practical tools and gentle challenge aimed at clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping. He encourages clients to set the pace and shape the work together.

How Chris’s approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and following the person’s lead. The counsellor offers empathy and reflection so the client can make sense of feelings and decide what matters most.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thinking and test different responses. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with change because it gives practical steps to try between sessions.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, achievable goals and builds on strengths already working in someone’s life. It can speed up progress when people want clear, short-term changes.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. This collaborative process means methods can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and reduce travel time. It can allow shorter check-ins or regular weekly meetings that slot around work or caregiving, and it can help people keep momentum between face-to-face appointments.
