About Christine
Christine Foster is a counsellor who supports people facing depression, stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She works in a person-centred way and treats each person as the expert in their own life. Her approach aims to make it easier to talk about painful experiences and find practical ways forward.
With 22 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, she draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Existential Therapy to shape sessions.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what you bring to the room and on your goals. She may introduce other techniques when they seem helpful for a particular situation. Christine has worked with people coping with trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and intimacy-related problems.
She also supports those dealing with eating or sleeping difficulties, addictions, and challenges around self-esteem and anger. Work can include planning small changes, building coping skills, and talking through difficult memories. Her style is straightforward and respectful.
She listens without rushing and helps people explore values and meaning when that feels important. Many conversations focus on simple steps you can try between sessions. Signing up for therapy is often the hardest step.
Christine encourages a gentle, steady pace and works alongside people to set realistic, personal goals. She aims to offer a clear, calm space for people to work through change.

Approaches Christine lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Existential Therapy looks at questions of meaning, choice and values. It helps when life changes leave you feeling stuck or uncertain about identity and purpose. Conversations can focus on what matters to you and on small steps that match your values.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will discuss options and together you will choose methods that fit your goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and you can steer how sessions unfold as you learn what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits shorter check-ins or when writing helps you reflect. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel and give practical flexibility for different needs.
