Christina Tremaine welcomes people who are worn out by stress, grief or relationship pain and want straightforward support. She is a counsellor with 25 years' experience who works in a warm, down-to-earth way. Christina aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings and begin practical change.

She uses a person-centred stance that keeps the client’s concerns at the core of each session. That means listening carefully and tailoring conversations to what matters most to the person in front of her.

Background and approach

She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Christina has worked in community settings and for the NHS supporting a wide range of people. Her background includes bereavement counselling and long experience with issues such as anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and workplace stress.

She is listed with BACP and NCPS, which are shown as her professional credentials. In sessions she combines empathetic listening with practical tools. That can look like naming patterns that hold someone back, trying out new ways of coping, and planning small steps to change.

She also brings therapies that focus on attachment and emotions where relationships and intimacy are central concerns. People meet Christina for many reasons, from sleep problems and parenting strain to more complex issues like bipolar mood management, OCD symptoms, or end-of-life conversations. Her priority is helping each person find clearer thinking and calmer responses so they can manage life more easily.

How Christina's approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and early bonds. Online sessions can help people notice how past attachments affect current relationships and develop new ways of connecting and feeling safe with others. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of the work; the therapist listens without judgement and follows the client's lead to build self-understanding and self-worth. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical exercises to break unhelpful cycles and manage symptoms like anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina works together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan if another direction seems more useful.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can be used for brief updates or when typed reflection feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while still getting consistent support from a registered or accredited professional.
