Christine Fleming is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports people coping with trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue and major life changes. Christine uses a calm, down-to-earth style to make starting therapy feel less daunting.

Christine aims to build a straightforward, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about difficult feelings. She focuses on listening and understanding before suggesting ways to cope. Sessions are practical and paced to each person.

Background and approach

Her background includes four years of professional experience working with mood disorders, panic and obsessive thoughts. Christine also works with people affected by sexual assault, domestic violence, postpartum challenges and pregnancy-related concerns. She brings experience supporting those facing self-harm and post-traumatic stress.

Christine uses approaches drawn from Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). That mix helps with emotional regulation, changing unhelpful thinking and building better ways to cope day to day. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Sessions are offered in English and Christine works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally. The first steps are simple and explained clearly when someone chooses to begin therapy. Many people find it hard to ask for help.

Christine aims to make that first step easier by offering steady support and practical tools to tackle distress and rebuild balance.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist offers an accepting space and follows the client's concerns, which can help people who feel overwhelmed or unsure where to begin.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. It uses practical exercises and simple experiments to reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving emotional balance. It includes techniques for distress tolerance and better emotional regulation, useful for people who struggle with mood swings or intense reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging offer practical flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone calls can fit into a short break or use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging allow for shorter check-ins or a written record of thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or distance from services, and many people find them a convenient way to access regular support.
