Christina Caffrey, BACP

Christina Caffrey is a counsellor who uses a client-centred and attachment-informed approach. She believes people are the experts in their own stories and draws on that perspective to help with stress, anxiety, grief and relationship concerns. Christina communicates in clear, straightforward language and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable.

She has 12 years of professional experience working with a wide range of difficulties, including depression, intimacy-related worries, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Christina pays attention to how past relationships shape present patterns, and she helps people notice those patterns so they can choose different responses.

Her work also addresses practical, everyday problems such as sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain, caregiver stress and long-term health challenges. Christina uses mindfulness and narrative techniques to slow things down, track patterns and reframe difficult experiences in ways that feel more hopeful.

Sessions focus on building on strengths and identifying small, realistic steps people can take between meetings. She uses motivational interviewing ideas to support change and to help people set goals that matter to them.

Christina is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises in the United Kingdom and carries a straightforward, warm style that aims to reduce overwhelm and increase clarity about next steps.

How Christina's approaches translate to online work

Christina uses client-centred and attachment-based ideas to guide online conversations. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting back what matters and building on a person’s own strengths to address stress, anxiety or relationship concerns. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current responses and helps people notice and change those patterns.

She also brings mindfulness practices into sessions to slow down strong reactions and help people notice thoughts and bodily signals. These approaches are useful for coping with grief, chronic health challenges, caregiver stress and mood difficulties. The therapist frames the choice of methods as a collaborative process and will work with each person to find the best fit based on their needs and goals.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and the ability to meet without travel. If you are considering online work, confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what to expect. The focus remains on helping people set small, manageable steps and use skills between meetings to make day-to-day life feel more workable.
