About Christine

Christine Foster is a counsellor with BACP registration and 22 years of clinical experience. She supports people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, sleep and eating problems, addictions, ADHD and career or life-change challenges. Her approach treats each person as the expert in their own life and aims to build on existing strengths.

Christine works in a person-centred way, starting sessions by listening to what the client brings. She adapts to what is needed in the moment and will introduce other techniques when they may help. That means sessions are conversational but focused on practical ways to cope and reflect.

She often helps people manage grief and loss, and to reduce ongoing worry and low mood. When relationship or intimacy issues arise, she offers a calm space to talk through patterns and next steps. Sleep and rest concerns are addressed through easy-to-follow discussion and strategies tailored to daily routines.

Christine draws on existential ideas when people need to make sense of big life questions or values, and she uses client-centred work to keep the person’s experience central. Sessions aim to increase self-awareness and clearer decision making rather than imposing solutions.

Someone thinking of starting therapy can expect straightforward, respectful conversation. The first step is a short matching process and then scheduling a session according to availability. Christine encourages people to take small steps and notices progress along the way.

How Christine’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters most to the client. It helps when someone needs a non-judgemental space to talk, to feel understood, and to explore small changes at their own pace.

Existential Therapy invites people to look at values, choices and meaning in life. It can be useful for those facing big transitions, questioning direction, or wanting clearer personal priorities rather than quick fixes.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Christine will work with the client to identify which way of working suits their needs and goals. She adapts the style as therapy progresses, checking in about what feels helpful and what could change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people maintain continuity of care if they move or travel. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm the available session types before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions to suit personal schedules and day-to-day life.
