Christine Viner , BACP

Christine Viner is a BACP-registered therapeutic counsellor based in Lincolnshire, England, who offers person-centred support shaped by several years of practice. She completed focused training in online therapy to ensure she can meet clients where they are and adapt therapeutic work to remote formats. Her background includes roles within the NHS, social care settings, and work with people who have physical disabilities, as well as supporting members of the armed forces and their families.

Grounded in a person-centred approach, Christine places emphasis on each person as an individual - their unique experiences, feelings, and ways of making sense of the world. That perspective guides how she listens, responds, and helps clients explore options for change. She collaborates with clients to shape session structure and communication methods so the therapeutic work matches their needs and preferences.

Christine aims to create a space where trust, belonging, and stability can develop, and she works alongside clients to make practical plans for moving forward. BACP indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors. If someone wishes to explore working with Christine, she invites them to get in touch to discuss next steps.

Approaches Christine Uses for Online Therapeutic Support

Christine draws on client-centred practice, attachment-based ideas, and emotionally-focused approaches to shape online therapy in ways that respond to each person's needs. Client-centred therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive stance where the client's experience guides the pace and focus of sessions - it is helpful for people seeking a supportive space to explore feelings, self-esteem, or life transitions.

Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and early bonds to understand how they influence current connections and emotional responses. This approach can support clients dealing with relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, or family-related challenges. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with core emotions and the interactional patterns that keep people stuck; it is often used for relationship work and for individuals wanting to deepen emotional understanding.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christine will work with each client to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adjusting methods as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend techniques to suit individual circumstances.

Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat, or messaging - offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations. These options allow clients to choose the format that best fits their life while engaging in the therapeutic work they need.
