About Christopher
Christopher "Chris" Corbett is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP, and uses that background to guide his practice. Chris aims to make first steps feel less intimidating for people seeking help.
He focuses on stress and anxiety, low mood and depression, and issues connected to LGBT experience. He also helps people cope with grief and loss and build better self-esteem and confidence.
Background and approach
Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Chris believes people know their own stories best. He listens for strengths and helps people spot practical ways to use them.
Conversations tend to be straightforward and goal-directed so progress can be noticed between sessions. His work also covers a range of related concerns such as attachment and abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, communication and control issues, guilt and shame, isolation and finding life purpose. He supports men’s issues, midlife questions, sexuality and matters around forgiveness and self-love.
People usually begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then arranging appointments that fit their schedule. Costs vary with location and therapist availability and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. The aim is to make therapy practical and accessible while respecting each person's pace.

Approaches to online counselling and what they do
Two evidence-based techniques often used in online counselling are problem-focused talking and strengths-based work. Problem-focused talking breaks issues into manageable steps and helps people test small changes between sessions; it is useful for stress, anxiety and control problems. Strengths-based work helps people identify skills and coping strategies they already use, then build on them to improve confidence and self-worth.Another helpful approach is grief-focused support, which provides space to name losses and develop ways to cope with the day-to-day impact. This can be practical and paced to match how someone needs to process their experience. The therapist will talk with each person and decide together which approaches suit their situation, goals and preferences in a collaborative way.
Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone calls can be lighter on data and easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or when someone prefers writing things down. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family or travel.
