About Christine
Christine Fleming is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and depression. She also supports those affected by trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, and big life changes. She works in English and offers sessions to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Christine aims to make the first appointment straightforward and calm. She creates an open space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Background and approach
She describes the step into therapy as an act of courage and offers steady support along the way. Her style is warm and practical. Sessions focus on what matters now and on skills that people can use between meetings.
She mixes conversational listening with structured tools to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day coping. Christine uses Client-Centred Therapy to follow each person’s lead and build a trusting working relationship. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect mood, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy techniques for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance.
She has four years of professional experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Christine offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, so people can pick the format that fits their life. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.
Christine aims to work collaboratively and to set clear, achievable goals together.

How Christine’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. The therapist offers acceptance and empathy, and people are helped to find their own solutions. This approach is useful for building trust and talking through painful experiences.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and small behaviour changes to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. CBT is often helpful when someone wants clear strategies to manage panic, low mood or unhelpful thinking patterns.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, provides skills for handling intense emotions and reducing self-harm or impulsive behaviours. It teaches distress tolerance, emotional regulation and better ways to communicate under pressure.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then choose or combine methods together. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they feel useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by registered or accredited professionals and include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are close to face-to-face meetings, phone sessions can be quicker and use less bandwidth, live chat suits short check-ins, and messaging lets people write between sessions. These options give flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels.
