About Christina

BACP, NCPS. 25 years' experience. Christina Tremaine is a counsellor who works with adults on grief, loss and a wide range of emotional concerns. She uses a person-centred approach and draws on other methods to help people talk through difficult feelings and practical problems.

Christina helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports those facing relationship strain, issues with intimacy, addiction and trauma and abuse. Parenting matters, workplace difficulties and life changes are within her practice too. Sessions aim to be straightforward and respectful, with time to talk and reflect.

Her primary approach is person-centred counselling, which focuses on listening and responding to what the client brings. She also works with cognitive behavioural ideas to look at thinking patterns and feelings, and uses attachment-based and emotionally focused ways of looking at relationships and connection.

Christina draws on 25 years of practice in community settings and previous work with a wide range of clients. She has experience supporting bereavement for adults and children and has worked in different services across the United Kingdom.

Sessions are conversational and practical. She and the client plan how to work together and adjust the way they meet as needs change. The emphasis is on clear communication, respectful dialogue and helping people find ways to manage daily life.

People interested in starting are asked to use the site process to match and book a first appointment. The counsellor speaks English and does not take international clients.

How Christina's approaches work in online counselling

Christina uses person-centred counselling, which means listening closely and responding to what the client brings. This approach helps people feel heard and builds a working relationship that supports discussion of grief, stress and personal issues.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. CBT methods can help with anxiety, low mood and patterns that keep problems going. Attachment-based ideas are used to understand how early relationships affect current connections and intimacy issues, and this can be useful for relationship concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options with each person and together decide which methods suit the situation and goals. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as progress is made.

Please confirm the exact online session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins if needed, and options that do not require being on camera for clients who prefer that. Registered and accredited professionals often use online sessions to carry out the same therapeutic approaches as face-to-face work, adjusted for the session length and setting.
