About Christina

Christina Murphy is a counsellor who focuses on building a trusting, accepting relationship with each person. She works from a basis of non-judgement and practical conversation to help people begin change. Christina uses familiar therapeutic methods to help a person see which old beliefs still fit and which should be questioned.

She aims to be a steady presence when feelings feel overwhelming. Christina helps people name difficult thoughts and emotions so they become easier to manage.

Background and approach

That can make everyday life feel less heavy and more manageable. Christina combines attachment-based ideas with client-centred listening and practical cognitive behavioural tools. Together these approaches help people understand relationship patterns, feel heard, and test new ways of thinking.

Sessions are straightforward and focused on what the person wants to change. She works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, sleeping problems and burnout from caring roles. Christina also helps people facing life transitions, career worries, anger, and recovery from abuse or domestic violence.

Christina is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has three years of professional experience and offers sessions to people in the United Kingdom. Conversations are held in English, using online formats that suit different schedules and needs.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches and online counselling flexibility

Christina uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships affect current patterns and emotional safety. This approach can help when people feel stuck repeating old relationship behaviours or when abandonment and attachment issues cause distress.

She also uses client-centred counselling which places the person at the heart of the work. That means the counsellor listens deeply, follows the person's pace and helps them find their own answers. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is used to spot and test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural changes that can reduce anxiety and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. Christina will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and then suggest which methods to try first. The plan can change as progress is made and new priorities appear.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people talk face to face; phone calls can be easier if bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit ongoing support between sessions or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and everyday life.
