About Christine

Christine Foster is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and relationship or intimacy-related worries. She also helps with sleep and eating problems, addictions, self-esteem, anger, parenting strain, career changes, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Christine has 22 years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works in a person-centred way, which means she starts from what the person brings to the room and follows their pace.

Background and approach

That approach aims to make space for each person to tell their story and find their own strengths. Christine will also draw on other helpful approaches when they fit the situation. Sessions are straightforward.

Christine listens, asks questions, and helps people try new ways of coping between sessions. Practical ideas and small experiments are often suggested to test what works in daily life. The tone is calm and respectful, with focus on what the client wants to change.

Over two decades of practice has given Christine experience with a wide range of life challenges, from sudden loss to long-term patterns of anxiety or low mood. She encourages clients to notice their abilities and to build on small steps. Many people find this steady, collaborative way of working useful during difficult times.

To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step match needs to availability. Christine welcomes people who want to explore change, regain balance, and cope more easily with life’s ups and downs.

How Christine's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of work. The counsellor listens with empathy, reflects what they hear, and supports people to find their own solutions. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and adjusting after trauma.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and how people cope with life’s big questions. It can be useful when someone is facing loss, major change, or a sense of stuckness and wants to explore values and direction rather than only symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christine will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then recommend ways of working together. The choice of methods is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or mobility limits. Video calls allow face-to-face contact while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be useful for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter reflections or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options aim to give practical flexibility so people can keep therapy going in a way that suits their life.
