About Christopher
Christopher Robertson is a counsellor practicing in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He supports people facing grief, trauma, anxiety and life changes. Christopher aims to help clients identify the roots of their struggles and take practical steps forward.
He works in a straightforward, person-focused way that centres the client's perspective. Sessions are used to talk through feelings, understand patterns, and try new ways of responding to difficult situations.
Background and approach
Christopher encourages self-compassion and practical thinking rather than jargon or lengthy theory. Common themes he addresses include stress, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and difficulties with self-esteem and body image. He also offers support around parenting concerns, career uncertainty, and the emotional impact of separation or divorce.
His background includes work with people affected by trauma and grief. Christopher draws on Client-Centred, Existential, and Mindfulness approaches to shape sessions. That means he listens closely, helps people make sense of what matters to them, and brings mindful awareness into day-to-day coping.
He tailors conversations to what the person finds useful in their life right now. If someone is unsure how to begin, Christopher guides the first steps gently. He helps set small goals, check progress, and adjust things when needed.
The focus is on steady, practical change that fits into a person's everyday routine.

How Christopher works online
He also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to bring present-moment awareness into everyday life. Mindful techniques can help with anxiety, stress and coping after trauma by teaching simple practices for noticing thoughts and sensations without judgment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christopher will discuss the aims, try different methods, and adapt based on what the client finds most helpful. The process is collaborative and reviewed as things change.
If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking so they meet your needs. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule. Confirm the exact formats offered and schedule details before you begin so sessions fit into everyday life.
