About Christine
Christine Porter is a counsellor who works with people facing depression, anxiety and relationship problems. She brings a warm, approachable style and focuses on helping people rebuild confidence after difficult events. Christine holds BACP which is listed as her professional registration.
She uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the person at the heart of sessions. That means the client’s concerns guide the work and the counsellor listens without judgement. Christine also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify practical next steps that feel achievable between appointments.
Background and approach
Christine has four years of experience in direct counselling work. She often helps people with self-esteem, stress, workplace pressure and grief. She also supports those dealing with communication problems, commitment worries, and isolation or loneliness.
Her practice includes work with people affected by chronic illness, caregiver strain, fertility concerns and issues linked to ageing. Christine also notes experience supporting clients with autism and additional learning needs, and with family of origin problems and separation. Sessions begin with a conversation about goals and what the client hopes to achieve.
Christine describes therapy as a team effort - she brings a toolkit of practical techniques and asks clients what changes they want. That shared planning is used to set clear, manageable steps and to track progress over time.

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
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps that move someone towards their goals. In video or text sessions Christine helps identify what would be different if things improved, then supports setting short actions to try between appointments. This approach works well for stress, coping with life changes and everyday problems.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. Christine will discuss goals and preferences with the client and together they decide which approach or combination fits best. That choice is reviewed as therapy progresses so methods can change if needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls suit longer conversations and visual connection, phone sessions can fit into a work break, live chat allows quicker check-ins, and text-based messaging is helpful for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to get regular support around daily routines and commitments.
