About Christine
Christine Burcham is a BACP counsellor who uses an integrative humanist approach. She draws on different methods to match what each person needs. Christine aims to create a space where people can speak honestly and begin to untangle worries that have become hard to manage.
She works with concerns such as anxiety, stress, low confidence and relationship difficulties. Christine also supports people facing grief, trauma, addiction and codependency. Sessions focus on exploring thoughts and feelings, making sense of current struggles, and finding practical ways to feel steadier and more able to cope.
Christine describes therapy as a collaborative process. She believes people know much about their own lives and brings techniques to help them move forward. That may include noticing patterns, trying new responses and building clearer boundaries where needed.
Her background includes long experience in social care and the NHS. That work involved supporting people with mental health and emotional difficulties across a range of ages and backgrounds. She draws on that experience to offer grounded, realistic support for everyday problems.
Christine has five years of practice as a counsellor alongside earlier roles in care settings. She works in the United Kingdom and sessions are offered in English. Before booking, people should confirm current session options and arrangements.
How Christine's approaches inform online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps when actions are blocked by fear or avoidance and supports building a life based on chosen values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people understand and change how they relate to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will talk with each person about their aims and preferences and then suggest methods that fit. The plan is collaborative so goals and techniques can change as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep continuity of care around work, study or family commitments. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often adapt exercises and homework to suit remote sessions, and Christine will discuss practical arrangements when you start.
