About Christine
Christine Porter is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with people who face anxiety, depression, relationship strain and life changes. Christine also lists areas such as grief, career concerns, self-esteem and stress among her core interests.
She uses a person-centred style that keeps the client at the centre of sessions. That means she asks what clients want from counselling and then works alongside them to reach clear, practical goals. Christine also draws on solution-focused ideas to build small, achievable steps for change.
Christine says therapy is a teamwork process. She brings a range of practical techniques and invites clients to try methods that suit them. Sessions include talking through feelings, testing small changes, and reviewing what helps in everyday life.
Her background includes counselling and coaching training from the early 2000s and more recent practice over the past four years. She has worked with people managing issues such as abandonment, caregiver stress, chronic illness, communication problems and isolation.
People who value a counsellor with a faith background and a focus on personal development may find her approach familiar. She encourages clients who are ready to take an active role in their own progress and who want straightforward support for real-world problems.
To start, Christine asks clients to outline goals and then decides with them whether the working relationship feels like a good fit. That helps keep sessions practical and focused on the changes the person wants to make.
How Christine’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centred therapy focuses on the individual and what they want to change. Online sessions using this approach involve the counsellor listening actively, asking what matters to the client, and shaping sessions around those priorities. It suits people who want to be central to the process and direct their own goals.Solution-focused therapy looks for small, practical steps that move a person forward. In online sessions that often means setting clear short-term actions and checking progress at the next meeting. This approach can help with stress, anxiety, relationship problems and coping with life transitions.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. Christine will discuss different methods and agree with the client which ideas to try first. The process is collaborative and adjusts according to how helpful each method proves to be.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, or reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find online sessions help people sustain regular contact while working on practical goals.
