About Christina

Christina Tremaine is a counsellor who focuses on practical support for parents and individuals facing change. She brings 25 years of experience and a calm, respectful manner to sessions. Christina works in English and practises from the United Kingdom.

She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and keeps therapy centred on each person's needs. Christina adopts a person-centred stance that puts the client's experience first. She listens without judgement and helps people name what matters most to them.

Background and approach

Her style is warm and interactive, with straightforward conversation and an emphasis on respect and compassion. She blends approaches from attachment-based work, cognitive behavioural ideas and emotionally-focused methods. That mix helps with grief, anxiety, parenting strain, relationship tensions and many life changes.

Christina adapts her way of working to match what a person needs at the time rather than following a single technique. Sessions often involve talking through feelings, spotting unhelpful patterns and trying small practical steps between meetings. Christina will work with clients to build clearer coping strategies, improve communication and manage stressful moments more effectively.

People seeking support for bereavement, addiction, sleep problems, low mood or self-esteem may find this approach useful. Christina aims to create a steady, compassionate space where clients can explore challenges and decide on realistic next steps.

Online support

How Christina's approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work helps people notice patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current reactions; it can be useful for parenting worries, intimacy-related problems and attachment issues. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and building a trusting therapeutic relationship so clients can explore feelings at their own pace and find their own solutions. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and introduces practical techniques for managing anxiety, low mood or unhelpful routines.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Christina will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and may weave together elements from different approaches to suit what proves most helpful. The aim is to find a working method that fits the issue at hand and the person's comfort with different techniques.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which allow flexibility in how people connect. Video works well for face-to-face conversation, while phone calls use less bandwidth and can suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging can be useful for brief reflections between sessions or for those who prefer not to use audio or video. These options help people fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments while keeping the focus on useful, practical work.
