About Christine
Christine 'Chrissy' Mostyn trained and practises as a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has 15 years of experience and arrived at this work after therapy helped her through anxiety and an eating disorder. Chrissy aims to offer steady, practical support rather than quick fixes.
She focuses on helping people find clearer direction and feel better able to cope with everyday life. Chrissy makes space for whatever is on a person’s mind.
Background and approach
Sessions are tailored to the individual, and she draws on different methods to suit each person’s needs. People often come with stress, anxiety or grief, but she also supports those facing trauma, relationship strain, addictions and mood difficulties. Her way of working is collaborative.
She listens first, then works with clients to set goals and try approaches that feel right. She uses gentle guidance and practical tools so people can use what they learn outside sessions. Chrissy combines body-focused work and mindfulness with talking therapies when it helps.
This can support processing trauma, managing strong emotions, and improving sleep or eating patterns. She also offers coaching-style support for career or life-change decisions. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the United Kingdom and beyond.
The practice offers several online formats so people can choose the option that fits their routine. To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step helps match someone to her support.

How Chrissy uses talking therapy and body-based work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, understanding and helping the person lead the pace of change. It is about building a trusting connection and supporting someone to find their own solutions to stress, relationships and life changes.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and focus. Practising short exercises can help with anxiety, managing emotions and calming the body in difficult moments.
Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and how trauma or stress shows up in the body. It can help people notice physical patterns linked to anxiety, eating or sleeping problems and learn ways to regulate those responses.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Chrissy will discuss goals and preferences, then try methods that suit the person. She treats this as a collaborative process and checks in regularly to see what helps.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, and text options suit brief check-ins or between-session support. These choices make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and allow continuity when life is busy.
