About Christine

Christine Viner is a BACP counsellor based in Lincolnshire, England. She brings five years of practice drawn from work in the NHS, social care, and with people who have physical disabilities and those connected to the armed forces. Christine focuses on listening closely and helping each person find a way forward that suits them.

She follows a person-centred approach that starts with the individual's experience. Sessions begin by understanding how someone sees their world and the particular struggles they face.

Background and approach

From that place Christine and the client agree a plan and structure for therapy that fits their needs. Christine also uses attachment-focused ideas to look at how we relate to others. This can help when relationship stress, family problems, or issues around abandonment and attachment are involved.

She brings emotionally focused and solution-focused methods to help people name feelings and find practical next steps. Practical matters are discussed openly, including how sessions will be run and how the client prefers to communicate. Christine offers evening appointments by arrangement and manages these times in her diary.

She accepts international clients and works in English. Her areas of concern include stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting and family difficulties, self-esteem, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can start to make changes that matter to them.

Ways of working Christine names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help people notice how they connect, feel safer naming attachment wounds, and practise different ways of relating. Client-centred therapy places the client's experience at the heart of each session. The counsellor focuses on listening, reflecting and following the client's priorities to help them make sense of their feelings and decide next steps.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Christine will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they can try different ways of working and adjust the focus as progress is made or needs change.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client see facial cues and hold a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, writing things down, or fitting support around a busy day. Registered and accredited professionals use these options to make therapy more accessible and adaptable to real life.
