About Christopher

Christopher Sarfo is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, depression, addiction and family concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients.

Christopher draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside attachment-based and client-centred approaches. He uses clear, practical discussions to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. That helps clients try different ways of responding day to day.

He has worked in a range of settings and with adults, children and couples, and can suggest onward support when needed. His practice also covers eating and sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, career matters, and coping with life changes including parenting and fatherhood issues.

Christopher also addresses commitment and communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and multicultural concerns. He works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, self-harm, social anxiety and phobia, and ADHD-related challenges. Sessions may include mindfulness techniques and emotionally-focused elements where helpful.

People can expect straightforward conversation about practical steps and small experiments to test new ways of thinking. He keeps records in line with professional standards and follows the BACP Ethical Framework. To start, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the provider’s sign-up process.

How his approaches fit with online counselling

Christopher commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts and behaviours and to set practical experiments that can be done between sessions. CBT suits work on anxiety, low mood, sleep and unhelpful habits because it focuses on specific steps and measurable changes.

He also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns, and on client-centred methods that prioritise listening and reflecting what the client says. These approaches help with relationship problems, intimacy concerns and issues around trust and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christopher will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then agree on a plan together. That shared decision helps match methods to the person rather than assuming one route fits everyone.

The original profile does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit around work and family commitments, need less travel, or prefer shorter check-ins by phone when bandwidth or background noise is an issue. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques such as CBT exercises, mindfulness practices and emotionally-focused reflections to remote sessions so they fit into everyday life.
