About me
Christine is a registered clinical psychologist, who has been in practice since 2003. In 2005 Christine further qualified as an integrated counsellor and psychotherapist. The main theoretical backgrounds of her training were psychodynamic and person-centred. She has since gained additional professional qualifications in working with other theoretical backgrounds, too, for example in Gestalt Methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) as well as couples counselling, allowing her to work in a truly integrative way and to provide the best form of therapy for each individual client. In 2011, long before the world had ever heard of Covid, Christine gained further qualifications in online therapy provision, which used to be a mandatory requirement for practitioners providing therapy over the internet.
Christine has worked in a variety of settings, including general practice as well as in non-residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation clinics. Through this she has gained vast experience of working with both long term and brief therapy, focusing on resolutions and progress during times where clients may feel particularly stuck.
Christine is a BACP senior accredited supervisor, providing supervision for psychologists, counsellors, therapists and those in the caring and related professions. Christine is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), the United Kingdom Register of Counsellors /Psychotherapist (UKRCP), the Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy Online (ACTO) and accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Her online appointments take place via a securely, end to end encrypted telemedicine platform. Where clinically appropriate, appointments may also be conducted over the phone.
