Christoper Schippers-Wakeling , BACP

Christoper Schippers-Wakeling is a UK-credentialed therapist with four years of professional experience and a BACP credential - BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a recognised professional body in the field. He works with adults facing stress and anxiety, intimacy-related concerns, anger management, and challenges with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

He focuses on building an open, non-judgmental space where people can explore their thoughts and feelings without pressure. In sessions he encourages honest expression and practical conversation aimed at understanding patterns and identifying manageable steps toward change.

Christoper frames the decision to seek support as an act of courage and a first step toward a more fulfilling life. He offers steady guidance intended to empower clients as they navigate change, build resilience, and work toward clearer goals. His approach is supportive and client-centered, intended to help people feel heard and to move toward the outcomes they want.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Access

Christoper uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that combine practical skills work with reflective conversation. One approach focuses on skill-building and coping strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and anger - this involves learning techniques to recognize triggers, regulate responses, and practice new behaviours that reduce distress. Another strand centres on relationship and intimacy work, exploring patterns, attachment-related concerns, and communication to help people improve connection and set healthier boundaries.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Christoper takes a collaborative stance - he and the client will review goals, preferences, and progress together to determine which methods fit best and adjust the plan over time.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which supports flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it easier to access help from home, while therapists and licensed professionals tailor pacing and tools to suit each client’s situation.
