About Christina

Christina Caffrey is a counsellor with 12 years of experience in the United Kingdom. She works from the belief that each person knows their own story and already has strengths to draw on. She aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful of what someone brings to the room.

Christina focuses on common struggles such as stress and anxiety, grief and loss, intimacy-related issues and depression.

Background and approach

She also supports people with parenting challenges, ADHD, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, and low self-esteem. Her wider interests include adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, and coping with major life changes. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred counselling and mindfulness.

She encourages gentle reflection on relationships and emotional patterns. Sessions often include listening to a person’s story, noticing recurring themes, and practising simple grounding or awareness exercises. Christina uses motivational interviewing and narrative therapy when it fits a person’s goals.

These methods help people explore values, consider small changes, and reframe difficult experiences. The emphasis is practical: try something, notice what changes, and adjust the plan together. She works online through video, phone, live chat or messaging, which helps people fit sessions into busy lives.

The format lets conversations continue between meetings when that is useful. Christina aims to create a space where people can try things at their own pace and build on what already works for them.

Online support

Approach-driven online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. It helps people notice patterns in close relationships and try new ways of relating when those patterns cause distress.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what is said, and helps someone explore their values and choices in a calm way.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple noticing exercises to reduce reactivity and increase emotional regulation. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, sleep issues and parenting moments that feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will discuss options and agree a plan based on a person’s goals, preferences and the issues they bring. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat and messaging, which supports different needs and schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into busy days. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent when life is busy or routines change.
