About Christina
Christina Collingwood is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and major life changes. She works with other concerns such as dissociation, family problems, guilt and shame, obsessions and compulsions, panic attacks, self-harm and sexual assault. Christina aims to offer a calm, respectful space where clients can begin to feel steadier.
She uses a person-centred way of working that puts the client’s experience first.
Background and approach
That means listening closely, reflecting what is heard, and shaping sessions around each person’s needs. Christina also draws on trauma-focused approaches when past harm is getting in the way of everyday life. Sessions are conversational and practical.
Clients can expect help to notice patterns, try small changes, and develop ways to cope between sessions. The work is paced to match what feels manageable for each person. Christina has four years of professional experience and holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
She practises from the United Kingdom and offers appointments in English. Starting therapy with Christina usually involves a short intake and a discussion about goals. She aims to tailor the plan as things change so the approach stays useful and relevant.

How client-centred and trauma-focused work translates online
Client-Centred Therapy is about being heard and understood. The therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear, and helps clients set the pace. This approach suits people who need a steady, validating space to talk through stress, grief or life decisions.Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on recognising how past harm affects daily life now. It uses practical steps to reduce overwhelming reactions and to build coping skills. This can be helpful for people dealing with trauma, panic attacks, dissociation or the aftermath of abuse.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, experiences and what feels workable. Together they will try methods and adjust plans so the work matches needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and clearer non-verbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options give flexibility to use the format that best suits daily life and energy levels, while keeping the focus on practical progress and steady support.
