About Christopher

Christopher Sarfo is a counsellor who uses person-centred and evidence-based approaches to help people facing emotional strain. He holds BACP accreditation, and he brings seven years of practice to sessions. Christopher focuses on clear, down-to-earth work that people can follow between appointments.

He helps with stress and anxiety, depression, grief and trauma and abuse. He also supports people dealing with addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and low self-esteem.

Background and approach

Practical concerns such as career change, parenting pressures and coping with life changes are also within his remit. Christopher mixes approaches to fit each person’s needs. He draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings.

He uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot patterns of thought and try different responses. Mindfulness and emotionally focused methods are also part of his toolbox. Sessions are offered in English and he welcomes people in the United Kingdom as well as international clients.

He has experience working in a variety of settings and aims to connect people with onward support when needed. Christopher describes his work as collaborative and paced to the individual. People can expect straightforward conversation, practical suggestions and steps to try between sessions.

He pays attention to cultural background, fatherhood issues, and feelings such as guilt, shame or isolation. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

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 relationships and early bonds influence current feelings and reactions. Online, this approach helps people notice patterns in how they relate to others and try different ways of connecting or setting boundaries.

Client-centred work focuses on the person’s lived experience and pace. In remote sessions the counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and follows the person’s lead to build trust and clarity.

Cognitive behavioural techniques teach skills to spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioural changes. These exercises transfer well to video or phone sessions and can be practiced between meetings with straightforward homework tasks.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify goals and try methods that suit the person’s needs and preferences. Adjustments are made as progress unfolds rather than fixed in advance.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing, want brief updates between sessions, or need flexibility around work or childcare. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using the approaches above to guide the work.
