About Christine
Christine Fleming works with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and related problems. She uses talking therapy to help people sort through difficult thoughts and feelings and to develop practical ways of coping. Christine is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.
Her way of working is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions are an opportunity to talk things through at a steady pace. She aims to listen and reflect back what she hears, and to help people try new ways of responding to problems in day-to-day life.
Christine draws on Client-Centred Therapy to follow what the person brings to the room and to build a working relationship. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping. These approaches are blended into clear, practical steps rather than technical explanations.
Christine works with a range of concerns including burnout and compassion fatigue, mood and panic problems, obsessive thoughts, and the effects of abuse and sexual assault. She also supports people through life changes such as pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period.
Sessions are carried out in English. If someone wants to start, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Christine uses therapeutic approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what the person brings to sessions, and this helps build a working relationship. It is useful for people who need a place to talk through feelings and clarify what matters to them.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and introduces practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It suits problems such as anxiety, panic and low mood where specific skills and small behavioural changes can make a difference.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships are strained.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christine will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions around work and family commitments and avoiding travel time. If you prefer particular session arrangements, confirm the current options before booking. The focus is on making therapy manageable within everyday life while using the approaches above to address the issues you bring.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
