About Christina
Christina Caffrey works from a person-centred approach that honours each person's story and strengths. She is a BACP counsellor with 12 years of professional experience. Christina focuses on helping people with stress, anxiety, grief, depression and intimacy-related issues. She encourages small steps and recognises the courage it takes to begin therapy.
Christina believes clients are the experts on their own lives, and she uses that belief to shape sessions. She listens for patterns in relationships and attachment, then helps people notice how those patterns affect daily life. Sessions often include mindful techniques to manage difficult feelings and narrative work to make sense of painful experiences.
Her background includes long-term work supporting people through life changes and loss. That experience informs practical strategies for coping, sleeping better, and handling anger or low self-esteem. Christina also brings an interest in neurodiversity, adoption and foster care, and caring for people with chronic illness.
Therapy with Christina is collaborative and paced to individual needs. She uses motivational interviewing to support change and to build on what already works for someone. People leave sessions with clearer goals, small steps to try, and a sense of how their past shapes current choices.
To begin, clients complete a short intake that helps match goals and preferences. Christina then works with each person to set realistic steps and priorities for change.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships. It helps people notice how early bonds affect current trust, intimacy and reactions during conflict. This can be useful for people struggling with relationship or intimacy-related issues.Client-centred work treats the person as the expert in their life. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the person's pace, helping them clarify goals and make decisions. Mindfulness therapy adds practical exercises to notice thoughts and sensations so strong emotions feel more manageable.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christina will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit someone’s goals and preferences, and she will adapt the plan over time based on progress and feedback.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the specific session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make it possible to use mindful practices and narrative exercises between appointments to build momentum between sessions.
