About Christopher
Christopher Hurd is a counsellor with four years of professional experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and relationship difficulties. He works from the view that people know themselves best and brings a calm, respectful presence to sessions. Christopher aims to help people take steps toward a more satisfying and manageable life.
He listens for how a person’s past and current experiences shape their reactions today. That understanding guides simple, practical steps clients can use between sessions. Christopher focuses on building acceptance and on noticing strengths that already exist.
Sessions often explore attachment and abandonment themes, and how those patterns affect intimacy and communication. He also supports people dealing with grief, career pressures, parenting strain and body image concerns. Codependency and addiction-related problems are included among the issues he addresses.
Christopher uses a mix of gentle, client-led talking therapies and deeper work aimed at patterns beneath the surface. He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep the person’s needs central. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when relationships and feelings need clearer expression.
He also offers psychodynamic work to look at long-standing patterns, and hypnotherapy when a quieter, focused approach is useful. Christopher welcomes international clients and works in English. To begin, people follow a short questionnaire and book a session according to availability.
How Christopher’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience first and focuses on what matters to them. Online sessions using this approach give space to speak and be heard, and help people notice practical steps they can try between meetings.Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on feelings and how they affect relationships. In remote sessions this approach helps people name emotions, practise new ways of expressing them, and notice patterns that keep causing pain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christopher will discuss which methods might suit each person based on goals, history and what feels comfortable. He treats this as a collaboration and adjusts the focus as needs change.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week, reduced travel time and the ability to meet from a location that works for daily life.
