Christine Asikuru is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing relationship strain, anxiety, depression and life changes. She draws on nine years of experience and a BACP registration to offer straightforward, steady support. Sessions can focus on small, practical steps as well as deeper self-understanding.
Her style is warm and non-judgemental. Christine draws on person-centred ideas to help people feel heard and accepted. She also uses practical tools from cognitive behavioural approaches to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Background and approach
In work with emotional pain and trauma, Christine uses emotion-focused ideas to help people name and work through strong feelings. Mindfulness-based practices are offered to build calm and moment-to-moment awareness. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas help people identify values and take steps that matter to them.
She has experience in educational settings and in independent practice, offering one-to-one and group support in the past. Her background includes a BA (Hons) in Counselling and a BACP registration, plus further counselling diplomas and certificates. Typical concerns she addresses include relationship difficulties, family-related stresses, self-esteem, grief, anger, eating issues, ADHD-related struggles and compassion fatigue.
Christine can also help with career questions and coping after crisis or loss. Sessions are available through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, and international clients can be seen. People who want to start complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session via the Start Therapy button.
How Christine’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and acceptance so people can feel understood and make sense of their experience. This approach supports self-esteem and emotional healing. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses straightforward exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which helps with anxiety, anger and low mood.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Christine will talk with each person about their situation, goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. That collaborative process helps shape which approaches are used and when.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging gives flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversation, phone can be easier if bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging suit quick check-ins or times when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, family and travel while still accessing registered or accredited professionals and an organised path of support.
