About Christina
Christina Tremaine is a BACP and NCPS accredited counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 25 years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions and relationship difficulties, and also addresses issues such as sleep problems, parenting strain, workplace pressures and self-esteem concerns.
Christina uses an integrative, practical approach that includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centred methods. She focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, then testing different ways of responding. Sessions aim to be down-to-earth and conversational while keeping a clear focus on what to try between meetings.
Her background includes community work and previous work within the NHS. That experience has involved supporting people through bereavement, end-of-life concerns and complex loss, as well as working with people affected by trauma, domestic violence and addiction. Christina also lists experience with mood conditions and obsessive-compulsive issues.
In practice she adapts talking, problem-solving and practical exercises to what a person needs. That can mean work on thinking patterns, exploring attachment-related responses, or building moment-to-moment coping routines. The emphasis is on short, actionable steps that fit into daily life.
People are invited to begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking an initial session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Christina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and attachment-based and client-centred methods. CBT focuses on spotting and testing thoughts and behaviours, which suits clear tasks and short practice exercises. Attachment-based work looks at patterns of relating that affect current relationships and helps people notice and change repeated responses. Client-centred work puts a conversational, non-directive frame around sessions so the person sets much of the pace and focus.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Christina will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped in the past, and then agree a practical plan to try in sessions and between meetings. She adjusts methods over time based on what the person finds helpful.
Session formats are not specified in the source profile, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a working day, allow shorter check-ins, or remove travel time. They also support using worksheets, guided behavioural experiments and real-time review of coping strategies in everyday contexts.
