About Christina
Christina Tremaine offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief and life changes. She writes in a down-to-earth way and aims to make conversations straightforward. Christina is a person-centred counsellor with 25 years of experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She focuses on everyday thoughts and habits that can make life harder to manage.
Christina uses a warm, interactive approach in sessions. She listens without judgement and helps people name what matters most. She combines approaches to match each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Her background includes work in community settings and with the NHS, supporting a culturally diverse range of clients. She has particular experience with bereavement and end-of-life issues and supports people through pregnancy and childbirth concerns, hospice work, and related grief.
In practice she draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred ways of working, cognitive behavioural techniques, emotionally-focused methods and existential thinking. That mix helps with anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, OCD and relationship difficulties among other concerns.
Christina tailors conversations and practical steps to each person’s daily life. She helps people notice unhelpful patterns, try small changes and build coping strategies that fit their routines. The aim is to support clearer thinking and steadier habits so day-to-day life becomes easier to manage.

How Christina’s approaches translate to online counselling
Christina blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural and emotionally-focused ideas. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and building a trusting dialogue to help people talk through what matters. Cognitive behavioural therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and habits, and try small practical experiments to change them. Emotionally-focused methods look at feelings in relationships and aim to make emotional responses clearer and more manageable.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will help clients and the therapist decide together which methods fit best for the person’s goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative decision can change over time as new issues come up or as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter or longer check-ins when needed. Some people find audio-only conversations easier on certain days, while others prefer a fuller face-to-face style; Christina will discuss what suits each person’s routine and energy levels.
