Christina Caffrey , BACP

Christina Caffrey works from a person-centred and attachment-aware perspective. She values each person's story and helps them make sense of difficulties like anxiety, grief and low mood. Christina draws on twelve years of practice to offer calm, steady support for people facing tough life moments.

She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression and problems with intimacy. She also helps people who are managing ADHD, bereavement, sleep or eating concerns, and relationship or family tensions. Her work covers longer-term mood challenges as well as coping with change and compassion fatigue.

Christina uses approaches that invite people to tell their story and build understanding. She adopts client-centred listening to follow what matters most to each person. Attachment-based ideas help her look at how past relationships shape current reactions.

Mindfulness techniques and narrative work are used when helpful to build awareness and shift how people relate to painful thoughts. Motivational interviewing supports people who want to change habits or try new ways of coping.

Sessions aim to be practical and relational. Christina encourages small, achievable steps and checks in about what is working. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles and needs.

How Christina’s approaches work online

Christina often blends client-centred listening with attachment-based ideas to help people understand how past relationships influence current feelings. Client-centred work means the counsellor follows the person’s lead, asks open questions and reflects what matters most. Attachment-based thinking looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice repeated responses when stress arises.

She also uses mindfulness in a practical way to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Mindfulness exercises can help with anxiety, sleep problems and managing strong emotions. Narrative techniques gently organise a person’s story so patterns and strengths become clearer, which can aid decision-making and change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has helped before, and then shape sessions together. This collaborative stance means approaches can shift over time as needs change.

Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation, phone sessions save bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in, and messaging or live chat suit brief updates or reflective writing between sessions. These options give flexibility for different routines and practical needs while keeping the focus on the therapeutic relationship.
