About Christina

Christina Steele offers calm, straightforward support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and intimacy concerns. She presents a practical approach that helps clients make sense of what is happening and take small steps toward improvement. Christina is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings 12 years of experience to her work.

Christina believes people know their own lives best and focuses on what clients want to change.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to identify clear goals and build simple, manageable tools to use between meetings. She emphasises collaboration so clients feel involved in decisions about their care. Her practice combines body-focused somatic work with trauma-focused approaches.

That means attention to bodily responses alongside talking about difficult experiences. The goal is to help people feel more steady in day-to-day life and better able to manage strong emotions. Christina has supported people through parenting stresses and intimacy-related concerns as well as anxiety and trauma.

She uses short, practical exercises, reflective conversation and paced exploration to make change feel possible rather than overwhelming. Starting therapy is treated as a partnership. Christina works at a steady pace and adapts sessions to each person’s needs.

If you want a straightforward, empathetic counsellor who blends body-based and trauma-focused techniques, she may be a good fit.

How Christina works online

Christina uses somatic work to help people notice and respond to how their body signals stress. This often involves simple grounding and breathing practices alongside talking, aimed at reducing physical tension and the sense of being overwhelmed. Trauma-focused therapy in her practice means taking a paced approach to difficult memories and reactions, gradually building tolerance and practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and suggest which techniques to try. That choice is shared so the plan reflects what feels most manageable and useful for the individual.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week by removing travel time and allowing sessions around work or family commitments. Different session arrangements have practical pros and cons, so confirm the exact options before booking. Many people value being able to do short check-ins, use video when helpful, or arrange sessions that suit their routine rather than a fixed commute time.
