About Christopher
Christopher Robertson is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He works with people who are facing grief, trauma, stress and anxiety, as well as those questioning their sense of self. Christopher aims to help clients discover what is driving their difficulties and to support steady progress over time.
He focuses on straightforward, personal conversation rather than jargon. Sessions look at patterns, feelings and practical steps someone can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Christopher pays attention to what matters most to each person and shapes sessions around their pace and goals. His work covers a range of concerns, including depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting, addictions and career stress. He also helps with body image, communication problems, fatherhood issues and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
The aim is to tackle both immediate distress and longer-term patterns that keep problems returning. Christopher draws on client-centred ideas to keep the person’s experience central. He also uses existential approaches to help people find meaning, and mindfulness techniques to build calm and focus.
Together these methods help people manage emotions and make clearer choices. People who prefer a direct, compassionate approach may find his style helpful. He works with individuals in English and accepts international clients.
Sessions are available through a range of online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help
Christopher uses client-centred work to keep each session focused on the person’s priorities. This approach involves active listening and reflecting so the client feels heard and understood; it suits people who need space to talk and make sense of their feelings.He also draws on existential therapy to help people explore meaning, purpose and the choices they face. This can be useful when someone wrestles with big life questions, midlife concerns or a sense of emptiness.
Mindfulness techniques are used to teach simple ways of calming the body and training attention. These practices help with stress, anxiety and improving day-to-day focus.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Christopher will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and adjust methods as the work progresses. He treats the choice of approach as something to test and refine together rather than a fixed plan.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, parenting and travel while keeping the therapeutic work consistent.
