About Cristiane
Cristiane Cabrera is a counsellor with nine years' experience who offers a calm, supportive space for people coping with change, loss, or emotional overwhelm. She works in a person-centred way, taking time to understand each person and shape sessions around individual needs. Cristiane welcomes gentle pacing and practical steps, so clients do not need to have all the answers before they begin.
Before each course of work she offers a gentle first session to listen to what has been happening and to clarify what a client hopes to gain. That meeting is also an opportunity to see whether the approach feels right. Cristiane aims to be respectful and non-judgemental while helping people notice small, manageable changes.
Her practice often blends conversation with optional creative or reflective work, including art, when that helps expression. These methods are always invitations rather than requirements, and many people choose to focus on talking alone. Sessions are paced around what feels most helpful to the individual.
She has supported people with stress, grief and bereavement, depression, abandonment and isolation. Cristiane also works with workplace issues, anger, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, family problems and life transitions. Money and financial issues are included among the concerns she addresses.
With experience supporting neurodiversity and multicultural concerns, Cristiane aims to be flexible and affirming. She offers counselling in English and Portuguese and works with international clients. Her registration is BACP, which is listed as her credential.
How her approaches shape online counselling
Attachment-based work focuses on the ways early relationships affect how someone connects with others now; it can help with trust, abandonment worries and relationship patterns. Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of sessions, offering empathy and understanding while the client leads the pace and content. Solution-focused therapy looks at small practical steps and goals to change specific problems and build on strengths.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cristiane collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. She listens to what matters most and adjusts the blend of reflective, creative and practical tools as the relationship develops.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Confirming options helps plan appointments that fit around work or family life. Many people find online counselling makes it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduces travel time and allows flexible scheduling; others use creative tasks within sessions as a different way to express what words may not capture.
