About Christina
Christina Murphy is a counsellor who builds a trusting, non-judgemental relationship as the basis for change. She brings three years of experience and works from a person-centred stance to help people who feel stuck or overwhelmed. Christina uses practical tools to make therapy understandable and actionable.
Her work focuses on stress, anxiety and sleeping problems alongside relationship and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, anger and depression. Many clients seek help with life changes, career shifts and compassion fatigue.
Christina describes counselling as a catalyst for change. She helps people notice old beliefs and patterns that no longer serve them. Then she works alongside them to try new ways of thinking and behaving that may fit better now.
Her approach emphasises warmth and acceptance. Sessions are a place to recognise painful feelings and treat them with kindness rather than self-blame. Christina aims to make progress practical, which can mean short impactful steps as well as longer reflection.
Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural methods when helpful. Christina offers clear, everyday explanations and gentle questioning to help people find clearer direction. She encourages realistic goals so clients can test changes between sessions.
Christina works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. If you are unsure where to begin she asks for a short initial questionnaire to match needs and to agree next steps.
How her approaches fit with online therapy
Christina uses attachment-based ideas that look at how early relationships shape current patterns; this can help when people want to understand trust, closeness and repeated difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy means she listens with acceptance and follows what matters most to the person in front of her, helping people feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers clear strategies to test thinking and behaviour, useful for anxiety, mood problems and sleeping difficulties.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy and she treats it as a collaborative process. Together they will discuss goals, try one or more ways of working and adjust the plan as needed. The aim is to pick methods that suit the person's needs and everyday life, not to force a single model.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare or travel, and it can allow shorter check-ins when life is busy. It can also reduce the need to travel and help keep regular appointments during periods of change. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use online ways of meeting to help therapy fit into daily routines.
