About Christine
Christine Coyle is a counsellor and psychotherapist with seven years' experience working in Northern Ireland. She holds BACP registration, and she combines talking with practical strategies to help people who are struggling. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental so people can feel able to speak openly about difficult issues.
She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and trauma. Christine also supports people facing grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, parenting strain and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
She has particular experience helping people with attachment and abandonment worries and those managing life changes such as separation or caregiving stress. Christine uses a mix of counselling styles to meet individual needs. She draws on client-centred work to keep conversations focused on the person, psychodynamic ideas to understand recurring patterns, and cognitive behavioural techniques for day-to-day thinking and behaviour changes.
Mindfulness is used to help with grounding and noticing thoughts without judgement. Her practical focus is on simple techniques people can use between sessions. That might include short exercises to change unhelpful thinking, problem-solving steps to tackle immediate pressures, or mindfulness practices to reduce overwhelm.
Christine also integrates trauma-aware and somatic ideas when bodies carry emotional distress. She previously worked in the charity sector and now runs her own counselling and holistic therapies practice. Christine aims to help people identify workable changes and build routines that support better mental health over time.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect and uses small, practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression and problems that benefit from clear exercises and homework.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about needs, goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process can shift over time as different techniques are tested and adjusted.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, while keeping the focus on progress and usable strategies.
