About Christine

Christine OPrey is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 12 years of clinical experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Christine helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, anger, sleep problems and major life changes.

She uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people understand what keeps problems going. Sessions focus on practical steps such as spotting unhelpful thoughts, trying different ways of coping, and building small routines that support rest and better sleep.

Christine has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, panic, obsessive thoughts, health anxiety, phobias and social anxiety. She also supports people facing parenting strain, burnout and compassion fatigue, and those living with bipolar or ADHD who want clearer strategies for everyday life.

Her approach is collaborative and goal-focused. Clients can expect clear explanations, simple tools to try between sessions, and space to talk through what matters most. Christine aims to help people build steadier routines, improve sleep and make manageable changes that fit their day-to-day life.

Sessions are offered in English and are tailored to the person in front of her. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Christine uses well-established therapeutic methods that focus on thoughts, behaviours and practical routines. Cognitive-behavioural approaches help people spot and test unhelpful thoughts and try new responses, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Sleep-focused strategies target bedtime routines, stimulus control and gentle behavioural changes to support more consistent rest.

These approaches are explained in simple terms and are adapted to each person’s situation. The therapist works collaboratively to choose techniques that match the client’s goals and preferences. Together they review what has been tried and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits daily life.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around work or childcare, and being able to use tools and worksheets digitally between meetings. The exact session formats available should be confirmed before booking, as current options are set by the therapist. Many people find remote work useful for keeping momentum while making small, steady changes to sleep and routines.
