Christine Fleming, NCPS

Christine Fleming is a UK-based therapist with three years of professional experience who supports people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and life changes. She is an accredited registrant member of The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), a credential that reflects her formal standing with a recognised professional body. Christine has worked with volunteers and with clients for two separate counselling charities, offering both in-person and online sessions.

Her practice includes supporting people through depression and the trauma that can follow pregnancy or infant loss, alongside a broad range of concerns such as panic, social anxiety, relationship and family issues, and challenges around caregiving and fertility. Christine aims to create a welcoming therapeutic space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed without judgement and where empathy is genuinely felt.

She approaches the start of therapy with particular sensitivity, acknowledging that beginning the process is often the hardest step. Throughout the therapeutic journey she prioritises walking alongside clients, helping them explore their experience and find practical ways to cope and move forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Christine draws on client-centered therapy to place the person's experience at the heart of the work, offering empathetic listening and support that helps people explore feelings, build self-understanding, and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can be especially helpful for anxiety, panic, low mood and stress. Christine also incorporates elements of hypnotherapy where appropriate, using guided relaxation and focused attention to support changes in habits and emotional responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christine works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the focus over time as progress unfolds and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging - offer flexibility for people balancing work, family and other commitments. These formats make it easier to access a registered professional from home or elsewhere, support continuity of care, and let therapists and clients choose the way of working that feels most manageable and effective.
