Christie Henderson , BACP

Christie Henderson is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on women's issues alongside a wide range of personal concerns. She aims to make first steps feel manageable and meets each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Christie uses practical, person-centred work so people can notice small changes that matter.

She tailors sessions to the needs of each person. That means talking through priorities, trying techniques that feel comfortable, and checking progress together. Christie draws on client-centred approaches and mindfulness to help with stress, anxiety and self-esteem concerns.

She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, intimacy-related worries and parenting pressures. Trauma, grief and coping with life changes are part of her experience too. Christie works with people affected by addiction, ADHD, mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar, and a range of other challenges listed in her profile.

Sessions can include solution-focused planning and somatic practices when helpful. Those approaches are used to build small, doable steps and to reconnect mind and body after distressing experiences. Christie aims for clear, practical strategies alongside a compassionate listening style.

Her background includes five years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Christie offers therapy in English and does not provide sessions to international clients. Online and remote formats are available for flexible access.

How Christie uses online approaches and practical therapies

Christie commonly draws on client-centred work that keeps the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to you, and shaping sessions around your goals and values. It is useful for people who want a supportive space to talk and to make decisions about next steps.

She also uses mindfulness-based techniques to help with stress and anxiety. Mindfulness practices involve simple attention and breathing exercises that can reduce racing thoughts and increase calm. Solution-focused methods are used to identify small, achievable goals and to build steps that fit into everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christie will work collaboratively to figure out what methods suit your needs, goals and pace. You can try different techniques in early sessions and agree on what feels most helpful going forward.

Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat lets you check in during a busy day, and messaging supports shorter updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel commitments.
