Christina Caffrey, BACP

Christina Caffrey is a BACP counsellor with 12 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She meets people where they are and focuses on everyday thoughts and habits that shape how they feel. Christina aims to make the first steps into therapy straightforward and encouraging for those who are worried or uncertain.

She sees stress, anxiety, grief, depression and intimacy-related concerns among her main areas of work. Christina also supports people facing parenting strains, sleeping or eating difficulties, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Her practice pays attention to how patterns of thinking and daily routines affect mood and relationships.

Christina describes clients as the experts on their own stories and draws on that perspective when working together. She uses approaches that centre on relationships and personal narrative alongside mindfulness and motivational techniques. Conversations tend to focus on practical changes, noticing patterns, and building on existing strengths.

Sessions are straightforward and paced to each person. Christina listens, reflects, and helps people try new ways of responding to old problems. Many people find this helpful when they need clearer routines, better communication, or tools to manage stress.

Her background includes a sustained practice in the UK and a commitment to respectful, person-focused counselling. To begin, people are invited to consider whether this collaborative, thought-and-habit-focused way of working feels like a good fit for their needs.

How attachment, narrative and mindfulness work online

Attachment-Based Therapy in Christina's practice looks at how close relationships shape current feelings and reactions. It helps with intimacy concerns, grief, and patterns that repeat between people. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and their lives, helping to reframe difficult experiences and find alternative meanings. This can be useful for depression, trauma-related concerns and life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without judgement, which often helps with anxiety, stress and sleep difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will look at your goals and preferences and try approaches that fit your needs. She treats this as a team effort where you both check what is helping and adjust the approach as you go.

If you are considering online work, please confirm the available session formats before booking as these are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and provide quicker follow-ups between in-person meetings. They can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that suit a work break, and let people try talking without needing to be in the same room as the counsellor. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use these options to help people keep therapy practical and consistent.
