I'M CHRISTINA
I'm an experienced counsellor, psychotherapist and life coach. I use my skills and years of experience to work with couples and individuals on a wide range of issues. My areas of specialism include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships difficulties, trauma, loss and bereavement. I work both online and in-person. I have supported clients within charity-based agency settings and now I run own private practice.
I work in a person-centred and integrative way to support clients. This means, I draw on a range of approaches including psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and existential counselling. My aim is to take into consideration all aspect of your needs, mental health and well-being, including physical, emotional, spiritual and relationship areas.
I draw on various aspects of relationship psychotherapy to work with couples at different stages in their relationship, marital and premarital. So, through collaborative work, couples can explore and understand their relationships and each other within an empathetic and understanding space. Our work together may cover aspects of sexual issues and difficulties that causes problems in your relationship. Also, I work with young couples dealing with growing pains. Furthermore, I help couples learn to deal with infidelity, conflict and resentment.
In my work as a life coach, I enable clients to be more self-aware of who they are as an individual, so that, they can become even more confident and empowered to succeed in life. I help clients transition through the key phases of their adult life and its issues to find personal fulfilment, achieve their career or business goals and aspirations.
Couple therapy, individual therapy and life coaching are 50-minute sessions. My aim is to create a compassionate and non-judgemental space for you to talk through your difficulties, so I can work with you towards your desired goals. Please contact me with any questions and to arrange a 15-minute initial consultation. The initial consultation is free of charge.

MY STORY
Â
I sometimes find myself down the compliant path trying my best to follow a prescribed structure that at times is not the best route for me, yet I persist on the path. Sometimes I wonder in my mind and at times out aloud “Is this really what I want or I’m I just following a prescribed route set by education and systems”. Then on my journey I start to come across things that gives me purpose and makes me experience fulfilment in being my authentic self.Â
Even though I went down certain paths for so long that it seems like I wasted such valuable time, I then realise the journey has brought so much experiences and wisdom that can be imparted to others to make their journey easier and stay on course to reach their destination sooner than later.
So, I learnt how to be self-aware and step into my authentic self, enjoying a peaceful life and helping others to fulfil their potential and purpose.Â
After realising it is never too late and I don’t have to stay feeling stuck, I embarked on the ultimate journey of self-discovery. And I learnt that once you step into who you really are, there's no going back.
If you're ready to walk away from your own limiting beliefs and build a life you love, I am ready to lead the way.
