About Christina
Christina Caffrey is a counsellor with 12 years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She uses a warm, person-focused style and believes people are the experts in their own stories. She aims to make first steps feel manageable and affirms the courage it takes to start therapy.
Christina often supports people coping with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with grief and loss, intimacy-related concerns, and the practical impacts of life changes.
Background and approach
Her work covers a wide range of issues including sleep and eating difficulties, anger, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Her approach is rooted in attachment-based and client-centred ideas. That means she listens for patterns in relationships and responds to each person without judging.
Christina uses mindfulness and narrative techniques to help people notice how they think and tell their story differently. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps as well as understanding feelings. She uses motivational interviewing to help people set achievable goals and keep moving forward.
The aim is to build on strengths people already have while addressing things that get in the way. Christina works with additional concerns such as adoption and foster care issues, ageing and geriatric matters, autism and attachment concerns. She also offers support around chronic illness, caregiver stress, codependency and separation.
If you are unsure whether your issue fits, she encourages an initial conversation to see if her way of working feels right for you.

How Christina works online
She also uses client-centred methods that put the person's experience first. In practice this means sessions focus on what matters most to the individual, with the counsellor following their lead and reflecting what they say.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will discuss goals and preferences and choose methods together with each person. This is a collaborative process where the plan can change as needs become clearer.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins. It can also make scheduling more flexible around work, school or caregiving routines. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt mindfulness, narrative and client-led approaches to work well in remote sessions when both people agree on the practical details.
