Christina Young
Gentle person-centred counselling for loss and life changes
About Christina
Christina Young uses a person-centred approach to counselling. She puts the person's experience at the centre of each session and offers a calm, listening presence. Christina explains things simply and helps people name and make sense of difficult emotions.
She focuses on grief, anxiety, depression and different types of loss, including baby loss and fertility-related struggles. Christina also supports people dealing with stress, relationship worries, intimacy concerns, anger and changes in life or career.
Background and approach
She pays attention to how these problems affect everyday routines and relationships. Christina is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has three years' experience working with people facing bereavement, infertility and pregnancy-related mental health concerns.
She also volunteers with a charity that assists those affected by fertility and baby loss. In sessions she offers a non-judgemental space to talk, to reflect and to name painful feelings like guilt, shame, anger and isolation. Conversations aim to help people understand their reactions, consider coping strategies and reconnect with what feels important to them.
Practical issues such as finances, work and friendships are considered alongside the emotional impact. Christina helps people prepare for and manage feelings of lack of control, and to notice small steps that can make daily life easier.

Sessions & fees
Person-centred counselling online and practical support
Christina practises person-centred counselling, which means she follows the person's lead and offers empathic listening. This approach helps when people feel overwhelmed by grief, infertility, anxiety or life changes because it creates space to name and process difficult feelings.In sessions she focuses on understanding each person's unique experience and on helping them find their own ways forward. Conversations may explore emotions such as guilt, shame, anger or isolation and consider how these feelings affect work, relationships and everyday life. The work is collaborative and paced to what feels manageable for the person.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and adapt the way she works so it fits each person. This means deciding together whether to focus more on emotional processing, problem-solving or short-term coping strategies.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different routines. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and other commitments.
