About Christopher

Christopher Ingram works with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD and a wide range of related concerns using an integrative counselling approach. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience in practice.

He combines practical talking therapy methods to respond to what a client brings to sessions. That can mean helping people understand patterns of behaviour, developing new ways to manage upsetting thoughts, or learning skills to handle strong emotions. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than long explanations.

Christopher uses approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking and dialectical behaviour strategies alongside a client-centred frame. He works with issues including relationship difficulties, grief, intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, career questions and compassion fatigue.

He also offers support around more specific areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, autism and Asperger Syndrome, avoidant personality patterns, chronic pain and illness, substance use difficulties, domestic violence, body image and emptiness. The work is practical and aimed at improving day-to-day coping.

Sessions are held in English and Christopher accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and are managed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, use the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Christopher uses evidence-informed approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values; it can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and can be useful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns and communication problems. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and aims to make sessions a place where the person leads the pace and topics.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Christopher will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then recommend a mix of methods. This is a collaborative process and can change as the work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer the same therapeutic approaches through remote sessions, and practical arrangements such as timing and session length are agreed at the start.
