About Christina
Christina Tremaine is a counsellor who aims to help people who are struggling with sleep, grief, anxiety or relationship strain. She writes in a warm, down-to-earth way and focuses on practical conversations that make sense to busy parents and carers. Christina uses a person-centred stance that keeps the client’s needs at the centre of sessions.
She has 25 years of experience and has worked in community settings and within the NHS. That background means she is used to supporting people through major life changes and difficult losses. Christina is registered with BACP and NCPS, which are listed as her professional credentials.
Christina blends approaches rather than following a single method. She draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits that affect rest and day-to-day functioning.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person. Conversations often include practical coping steps, ways to manage anxious thinking, and ideas to improve sleep and routine. She aims to help clients build realistic plans they can try between sessions.
Her style is empathic and non-judgemental. Christina emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion while helping people explore feelings like grief, shame or anger. The goal is clearer thinking and steadier days, not instant fixes.
How her approaches translate to online work
Christina uses attachment-based ideas to consider how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach looks at how connection and closeness influence feelings and behaviour and can help with intimacy issues and grief.She also uses client-centred counselling which means conversations are driven by what the person needs. That creates space for someone to be heard and to work at their own pace, which can be useful when tackling anxiety or sleep disruption.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That means discussing what feels useful, trying things in session, and adjusting the plan over time if needed.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose sessions that match their energy on any given day, for example a quieter phone call or a longer conversation when they have time to talk.
