About Christina
Christina Collingwood is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and depression. She aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where clients can begin to make sense of difficult feelings. Christina uses straightforward, person-focused sessions tailored to each person she meets.
She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to put the client's experience at the heart of the work. That approach means listening carefully, reflecting what is said, and helping people find their own answers.
Background and approach
Christina also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy when past harm or abuse is part of the picture, offering ways to reduce the hold those memories have on daily life. Sessions are shaped by practical goals and small steps.
Christina will work with each client to choose strategies that fit their life and needs, whether that means coping tools for panic, ways to manage intrusive thoughts, or support through bereavement. Conversations are paced to what feels manageable for the person in the room.
Her background includes four years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Christina explains things plainly and keeps suggestions realistic so people can try them between sessions. Many people begin therapy feeling unsure, and Christina acknowledges that first step is difficult.
She offers an encouraging, steady presence while clients test new ways of thinking and acting. The focus is on small, sustainable change rather than quick fixes.

Approaches Christina lists

Online support
Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the impact of past harm and abuse with techniques that help reduce distress and improve daily functioning. In remote sessions this work moves at a careful pace, focusing on managing strong emotions and building coping skills before any deeper processing.
Choosing a therapeutic approach is a joint process. Christina will discuss different ways of working and help decide what fits the client's goals and preferences. The plan can change as therapy progresses so the approach stays relevant to what the person needs.
Online sessions offer flexibility for different lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face connection; phone sessions need less bandwidth; live chat or text-based messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or other commitments and to continue work when travel or relocation happens.
