About Christian

Christian Jackson is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, addiction and anger. He invites people who are ready to address what is wearing them down to take the next step and book a session.

Christian sees clients as the experts in their own lives. He focuses on strengths and practical steps rather than labels. In sessions he helps people notice patterns that keep causing pain and then tests small changes to see what helps in daily life.

He draws on cognitive behavioural approaches to look at thinking and behaviour links. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people accept difficult feelings while committing to values-based actions. Attachment-based work informs how he looks at relationship patterns and close connections.

The practical side of his work includes talking through present problems, setting short-term goals, and trying out coping strategies between sessions. He pays attention to routines like sleep and eating when these affect mood and stress. He also supports people managing grief, career stress, parenting pressures and recovery from past abuse.

Christian welcomes people who identify as LGBT and those facing complex issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood difficulties, or addiction. He encourages people to take a small step - complete a brief questionnaire, then arrange an initial appointment to see how the approach fits.

How his approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without spending energy fighting them, then choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with persistent anger, avoidance and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change patterns that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and problem habits. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns that developed in close relationships and how they influence current reactions and conflicts.

Finding the best fit between these approaches is part of the work. Christian treats this as a collaborative process. Together they will review how ideas feel in practice and adjust the mix of methods to match the person’s goals and preferences.

Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, or allow a quieter check-in when needed. Many people use remote sessions to maintain regular contact while balancing work, family and other commitments.
