About Christina
Christina Caffrey is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, intimacy-related issues and depression. Christina recognises that people know their own lives best and brings that respect into sessions.
Her approach starts from listening closely to a person's story. She uses client-centred ways of working to follow the priorities the person brings. Narrative methods help people untangle painful patterns by looking at the stories they tell about themselves.
Christina also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. For many people this helps with intimacy concerns and with understanding reactive patterns in relationships.
Mindfulness techniques are introduced in practical, short exercises. These are intended to help with stress, anxiety, sleep and concentration rather than as abstract practices.
Clients who come with life transitions, coping difficulties or complex grief can expect steady, conversational work. Christina frames problems in plain language, notices strengths and helps people try small, manageable steps.
She has additional experience with ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, parenting-related stress, compassion fatigue and long-term conditions. Christina also has a background supporting people affected by adoption and foster care, attachment issues and relationship breakdowns.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Christina combines client-centred work with attachment-based and mindfulness approaches in simple, practical ways. Client-centred work means sessions focus on what the person brings and on clear, respectful listening. This helps with common young adult issues such as starting work, relationship stress and feeling lost after university. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationship patterns affect current intimacy and trust. Exploring these patterns can make it easier to change how someone relates to partners, friends or colleagues. Mindfulness is used in short exercises to support stress reduction, better sleep and improved concentration without requiring long practice sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods and adjust based on how helpful they feel. This is a collaborative process where the person’s preferences guide what is tried next. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study or work, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling for busy days. They also let people choose quieter times or shorter check-ins when that fits better with everyday life.Areas of expertise
