About Christine

Christine Coyle is a counsellor with seven years' experience working in Northern Ireland and the wider UK. She trained in psychology and criminology and now runs her own counselling and holistic therapies practice. Christine works with adults who are finding life hard and aims to make the first step into therapy as straightforward as possible.

She offers a calm, warm and non-judgemental space to talk. Her practice focuses on everyday tools and simple techniques that people can use between sessions to feel steadier.

Background and approach

Sessions often begin with practical steps to manage stress, anxiety or low mood and then move on to longer-term themes when that feels helpful. Christine draws on client-centred work to keep sessions paced around each person's needs. She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and mindfulness to build awareness of the body and mind.

Psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas are used when exploring past patterns and setting realistic goals. Her background includes charity work and a mix of counselling and holistic therapies. That experience informs a flexible approach to issues such as self-esteem, depression, trauma, addictions and relationship difficulties.

There is particular experience supporting women dealing with low self-worth. Sessions are offered in English and Christine is available to work with international clients. People who come for help often want practical ways to cope, clearer boundaries or a path through life changes, and Christine aims to help with those goals.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. It helps when someone needs a safe space to be heard and to build confidence in their own choices.

Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with stress.

Mindfulness therapy encourages gentle attention to bodily sensations and present-moment experience. It is often used alongside other approaches to reduce reactivity and increase self-awareness.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, past experiences and what works best for them. Together they will try methods that fit the client's needs and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers flexibility and can fit around work, family or travel. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or days when writing feels easier. These options help people maintain continuity of support and make therapy more accessible for different lifestyles.
