About Christine

Christine OPrey is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 12 years' experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, low mood, anger or major life changes.

Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. Sessions focus on simple, practical steps you can try between meetings.

Background and approach

She also offers support for people facing family problems, abandonment issues, codependency and relationship worries such as commitment and communication difficulties.

Other areas Christine addresses include body image, shame and guilt, compassion fatigue, bipolar-related stress, hoarding and isolation. She helps people who are grieving or coping with divorce and separation to make sense of what they are going through. Christine is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Christine lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How evidence-based techniques work online

Christine commonly uses cognitive and behavioural approaches that focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. This involves practical exercises, simple experiments and activity planning that help reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits.

She also draws on trauma-informed methods which help people process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable. These techniques aim to improve sleep, reduce distress linked to painful memories and build everyday coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and choose methods that fit your needs, goals and preferences. You and the counsellor review progress together and adjust the plan as required.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give flexibility. Video calls let you work face-to-face from wherever you are, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging lets you send updates between meetings. These options help therapy fit around work, family and other commitments.
