Christie Henderson focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or big life changes. She makes room for straightforward conversation and practical steps people can try between sessions. Christie aims to help clients feel steadier and more in control of day-to-day life.
She uses a client-centred approach, which means conversations start with what matters to the person and move at their pace. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help manage worry and improve sleep.
Background and approach
Solution-focused methods help set small, achievable goals so progress can be seen quickly. Christie also draws on trauma-focused and somatic ideas when past hurts have a physical or emotional hold. That can mean noticing how the body reacts to stress and learning simple ways to ease those reactions.
Sessions are adapted to the issue at hand and the person’s comfort level. Christie holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration. She has five years of professional experience working with a wide range of concerns, including relationships, parenting, addictions, grief and self-esteem.
Her background includes supporting people through career shifts, chronic health issues and identity matters. Work with Christie is practical and paced to suit each person. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the client.
How Christie’s approaches work online
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and pace, with the counsellor listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and understood. It helps when someone needs space to sort their thoughts and make decisions about next steps.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and improve sleep. It is useful for people who want practical ways to manage anxiety and ground themselves in the moment.
Trauma-focused and somatic ideas are used when past events still affect current feelings or bodily reactions. These approaches help people notice how stress shows up in the body and learn gentle ways to lessen that hold.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christie will work with the client to try methods that match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as they go. This shared decision-making helps keep work relevant and manageable.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which allow sessions to fit around work or caregiving and reduce travel time. Phone or text can be useful for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, while video calls suit deeper conversations where visual cues help. These formats make regular contact easier and offer flexibility for different rhythms of life.
