About Christine
Christine Viner is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She draws on five years of clinical experience and a person-centred background to offer calm, attentive support. Christine aims to create a space where people feel heard and understood before planning next steps.
She pays close attention to each person’s experience and what matters to them. In sessions Christine listens carefully, reflects what she hears, and works with clients to set simple, practical goals. This might include talking through relationship strains, managing anxiety, coping with grief, or handling changes at work or home.
Christine has worked in the NHS, social care, and with people who have physical disabilities. She has also supported personnel connected to the armed forces. Those roles helped her learn how to adapt her approach to different circumstances and needs.
Her practice uses a collaborative style. Christine and the client decide together how to structure sessions and communicate between meetings. She aims to build trust, a sense of belonging, and steadiness as the foundation for change.
People often contact Christine about stress, depression, family and relationship issues, parenting strains, trauma and abuse, LGBT matters, and challenges such as ADHD or compassion fatigue. If someone would like to explore working together she asks them to make initial contact to discuss availability and next steps.
How her approaches shape online therapy
Christine draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely, accepting each person’s experience, and allowing clients to lead the pace of their change. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, self-esteem and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect feelings and behaviour and can help with relationship difficulties, loss, and trust issues.Christine sees finding the right approach as a joint process. She will talk with clients about what they need and what feels helpful, then tailor sessions to those goals. The choice of methods is adjusted as people learn what helps them most, and decisions are made together throughout the work.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep routines, attend from different locations, and maintain momentum between appointments while the therapist and client test what works best.
