About Christine

Christine Asikuru is a BACP-registered counsellor based in North London who brings nine years of professional experience to her practice, including seven years working in educational settings. She has provided one-to-one and group counselling for students and parents and now sees adults and young people in a private practice, offering face-to-face appointments as well as sessions by Skype, Zoom and telephone.

Known for a compassionate and open-minded approach, she creates a non-judgmental space where people can explore difficulties and begin to understand repeating patterns that affect their lives. Christine aims to help clients make sense of their feelings, build inner resilience and strengthen wellbeing across different areas of life. Her work focuses on collaboration - exploring concerns together and finding practical ways forward that suit each person.

Her core training is person-centered, which emphasises the client as the expert in their own experience, and she adapts methods from humanistic, psychoanalytic, cognitive and behavioural traditions to meet individual needs. Christine holds a BA (Hons) in Counselling, a BACP-accredited foundation degree (diploma level 5) in counselling and psychotherapy, a CPCAB certificate in counselling skills (level 2), and a Makaton for Professionals certificate of attendance. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-directive relationship where the client’s own experience guides the work; it helps people who want to explore identity, relationships and self-understanding at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress-related difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines mindfulness and values-based action to help people accept difficult emotions and commit to meaningful changes in life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Christine works collaboratively to identify what fits each person’s needs, goals and preferences. She combines elements from different models when that better serves the client rather than relying on one fixed method.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, geographical limits or mobility considerations. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care and access support from registered professionals in ways that suit day-to-day life.
