About Christina
Christina Murphy is a counsellor who focuses on helping people make change in their lives. She works from a relationship built on trust, acceptance and non-judgement. Christina uses a range of therapeutic tools to help people question beliefs and habits that no longer fit.
She believes change can be both quick and empowering when the right support is in place. Christina centres sessions on listening first, then gently challenging thoughts that keep someone stuck.
Background and approach
She aims to help people befriend difficult feelings and notice what those feelings are trying to tell them. The work often looks at patterns in relationships and ways early attachments can shape current behaviour. Her approach combines attachment-based thinking, a client-centred stance and cognitive behavioural ideas.
That mix helps people understand emotional reactions, practise new responses and rebuild confidence. Sessions can address stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, sleeping difficulties, anger and relationship concerns. Christina also offers focused support around abandonment and attachment issues, caregiver stress, codependency and control issues.
Other areas she works with include self-esteem, intimacy-related problems, life purpose and coping with midlife change. She brings three years of experience and holds BACP registration. Sessions are conducted in English and Christina practises in the United Kingdom.
She does not take international clients. If someone is unsure where to start, she asks that they use the site tools to match and book a first appointment.

How Christina works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That means sessions can focus on understanding emotional patterns, practising new responses or simply having a steady listening space while changes unfold.
If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking so you know how appointments are held. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in during a hectic day. It can also let someone try different ways of working from their usual routine while keeping the focus on progress and practical steps.
