About Christopher
Christopher Robertson is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He works with people who are coping with grief and loss, a range of trauma, anxiety, depression and stress. Christopher also supports those facing relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, parenting strains and issues around self-esteem.
He prefers a straightforward way of working. Sessions focus on understanding the root of a problem and on practical steps people can take day to day. Conversations are centred on the person's own experience and what matters to them now rather than jargon or labels.
Christopher uses client-centred and existential approaches alongside mindfulness practices. That means he pays attention to how people see their lives and values, and he brings in simple mindful skills to manage intense emotions and rumination. He aims to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck and try different ways of responding.
People come to him with issues such as addiction, career pressure, body image and problems with communication or commitment. He also works with concerns linked to guilt, shame, loneliness and midlife questions. Christopher will talk through the difficulties and help set realistic, manageable steps for change.
Sessions are intended to be practical and focused. He supports people who want clearer thinking about their choices, steadier reactions to upsetting events, and better handling of anger and resentment in daily life.
How Christopher uses therapeutic approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens to what matters most and follows the person's pace, helping them clarify feelings and options. This approach helps with emotional overwhelm, decision making and building steadier responses.Existential therapy looks at meaning, values and difficult life choices. It can be useful when someone feels stuck, empty, or unsure about a next step. Conversations often address responsibility, freedom and what matters to the person right now.
Mindfulness-based practices teach simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and repetitive thoughts. These skills are practical for managing anger, anxiety and stress by creating short pauses between feeling and action.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what seems most useful based on the person's goals and preferences and will adapt the work as understanding grows.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. Many people find remote work helps them practise skills in the settings where the problems occur, and the therapist will talk through what will work best in each person's life.
