About Christine
Christine Asikuru is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing relationship strain, anxiety, stress, grief and trauma. She works in a straightforward way, listening and gently helping clients make sense of painful patterns. Christine holds BACP registration and brings nine years of practice to her work.
In sessions she focuses on understanding what causes repeated difficulties. She uses clear questions and reflective listening to help people notice thoughts and feelings.
Background and approach
Conversations cover everyday pressures like work, caregiving and changes in family life. Christine draws on person-centred ideas first, which aim to treat people with respect and acceptance. She also uses techniques from cognitive behavioural methods and mindfulness to help manage thoughts and emotions.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are used when relationships and attachment issues are central concerns. Her background includes work in educational settings where she provided one-to-one and group counselling for students and parents. She now sees adults and young people in independent practice and offers a mix of session formats to suit different needs.
Sessions aim to increase self-understanding and strengthen coping skills. Practical steps and small experiments are often part of the work. The overall emphasis is on helping people feel steadier and more able to face life changes.

How Christine’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts without battling them and choosing actions that match personal values. This can help when stress, anxiety or feelings of emptiness stop people moving forward. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with small practical experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on how feelings shape relationships and attachment, useful for people struggling with closeness or commitment issues.The therapist will work collaboratively to choose which approach suits you best. Early sessions focus on understanding your goals and what feels most useful. Then methods are tried in a flexible way, with adjustments based on what helps you make progress.
Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging can be used for brief check-ins, coaching-style support or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, caregiving or busy days while keeping continuity of care.
