About Christine
Christine Foster is a counsellor with 22 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works in a person-centred way, meeting people where they are and following what they bring to the session. She emphasises practical support for common concerns such as depression, stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and grief.
Christine values a straightforward, respectful approach and encourages people who have taken the first step to seek help.
Background and approach
Her background includes long-term work with a variety of emotional and life challenges. Christine uses Client-Centred Therapy to build a trusting conversational space, and she also draws on Existential Therapy to help people examine meaning, choice and identity. Sessions often focus on understanding what matters most to the individual and finding manageable steps forward.
In practice she helps people notice strengths they already have and apply these to everyday problems. That might mean talking through coping strategies for sleep and eating issues, looking at ways to handle work stress, or exploring responses to loss and trauma. The aim is to make change feel possible and realistic rather than overwhelming.
Christine is registered with the BACP, which is highlighted as her professional credential. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. People can expect a calm, direct style and a focus on what they want to achieve from therapy.

Online support
How Christine’s approaches work online
Christine uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a warm, non-judgemental space where the person sets the pace and topics. This approach helps with issues like anxiety, depression and self-esteem by emphasising listening and the person’s own resources.She also draws on Existential Therapy to look at questions of meaning, values and choice. That work is useful for people facing big life changes, grief, career crossroads or struggles with identity and purpose.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively with the client to decide which elements to use, and may try different ways of working as needs and goals become clearer.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone suits shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, live chat and text can fit around work breaks and allow time to reflect. These options give flexibility for people balancing family, work and travel, and make it easier to keep therapy consistent over time.
