About Christopher
Christopher Ingram is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions and a wide range of life challenges. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through difficult thoughts and everyday habits. He works with issues such as depression, trauma and grief, ADHD, relationship strain, and concerns around intimacy and self‑esteem.
He uses a blend of approaches to tailor sessions to each person. That can mean looking at patterns of thinking and behaviour, practising skills for managing strong emotions, or paying attention to early attachment experiences that shape relationships. Sessions are collaborative - the person sets goals and Christopher adapts methods to suit those aims.
In practical terms he draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to address unhelpful thinking and routines, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to work with values and acceptance, and Attachment‑Based ideas to understand relational patterns. He also uses client‑centred ways of working to make space for what matters to the individual.
Christopher has three years of experience and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He works from a straightforward, compassionate stance and aims to help people find manageable steps forward.
If you are weighing up therapy, he encourages an initial conversation to see whether his style and the practical arrangements feel like a good fit for you.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and everyday habits and replacing them with practical strategies and experiments. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people recognise and change those patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and make a plan together, adjusting methods if something isn’t helping. That collaborative process helps ensure the chosen approaches fit the person’s needs rather than being imposed.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow focused, shorter check‑ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue work with someone while living in a different country, which aligns with his acceptance of international clients.
