About Chris
Chris aims to foster an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and emotions can be explored honestly. He emphasizes collaboration, helping clients identify goals and practical steps for change while offering steady support through difficult moments. Seeking therapy requires courage, and Chris focuses on empowering individuals as they take the first steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Chris holds BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects adherence to professional standards in the UK. He combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a compassionate, client-centered stance to help people navigate challenges and build resilience.
Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options
Chris uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that are practical and focused on real-world change. One approach emphasizes structured, goal-oriented work that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop alternative ways of responding - this is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress. Another approach centers on trauma-aware methods that help people process past hurt at a manageable pace while developing coping skills for flashbacks, avoidance, or overwhelming emotions. Chris also integrates skills-based coaching to build confidence, improve communication, and strengthen daily routines for sleep, eating, or parenting challenges.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Chris works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts the plan as understanding deepens over time.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy lives and for those who live far from in-person services. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, family, or travel schedules and allow continuity of care when circumstances change, while still enabling meaningful, goal-focused work with licensed professionals and therapists.
