Christine Porter

Christine Porter is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people through times of change. She holds BACP accreditation and brings four years of professional experience. Christine aims to create a warm, accepting space where people can talk about what matters to them and set practical goals for change.

She focuses on relationship difficulties, family concerns, grief and separation. Christine also supports people facing career pressures, chronic health issues, and the stress that comes with big life transitions. She works with anxiety, depression, anger and self-esteem struggles, and with issues such as abandonment, communication problems and isolation.

Christine uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the person at the heart of sessions. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, achievable steps forward. These approaches shape practical, collaborative work that looks at thoughts, feelings and small behaviour changes.

Her style is straightforward and encouraging. Sessions are described as team work where therapist and client agree goals and try tools together. Christine is comfortable supporting people with additional learning needs and those managing caregiving or chronic illness pressures.

She welcomes people who are ready to commit to their own development and who want a counsellor with a faith background if that matters to them. Christine offers her practice from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

Using Client-Centred and Solution-Focused Ways Online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and helps people notice their own strengths and values. This approach can help with loss, low self-esteem and the uncertainty that follows separation.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasises small, practical steps and clear goals. It looks at what is already working and builds on those moments to create forward movement, which can be useful for practical problems like communication or coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try. The process is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

The biography does not name specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around a busy life, allow shorter check-ins during a workday and reduce travel time. It can also let people choose sessions that suit their comfort with video, audio or messaging when those options are offered.
