About Chris
Chris Wilson is a counsellor who uses an integrative, relational way of working to match therapy to each person. He draws on different approaches to suit a person's needs and focuses on practical changes that matter day to day. He is based in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration.
He has four years of experience and offers sessions online in English. In sessions Chris helps people manage stress and anxiety and navigate depression.
Background and approach
He also works with relationship concerns, self-esteem, motivation and life transitions such as retirement or injury. Additional areas include addiction, trauma and grief, and issues linked to identity and intimacy. His background includes work in a prison setting supporting people with addiction, anger and trauma.
He has also worked with professional athletes and performers through transitions like injury and retirement. More recently he has run a independent practice working with a wide range of personal challenges in the community. Chris uses a flexible mix of approaches so therapy is shaped around what helps each person most.
Conversations tend to focus on what matters to you, clear next steps and small changes that add up. He aims to offer a respectful and non-judgemental space for people to talk about difficult topics. People who choose to work with Chris usually want a practical, down-to-earth process with room to explore feelings and life patterns.
He supports decisions about coping strategies, boundaries, and rebuilding confidence after difficult events. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your aims, preferences and what feels most useful. Together you will decide which approaches to emphasise and test what helps in practice, adjusting the plan as you go.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option and work well for a shorter check-in. Live chat or text-based messaging suits people who prefer typing or need to fit therapy into a busy day. These formats make it easier to keep therapy going around work, travel and family commitments while working with therapists and registered or accredited professionals who draw on the approaches above.
