Christopher Robertson, BACP

Christopher Robertson is a UK-licensed therapist with five years of professional experience and holds BACP membership - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He works with people navigating grief and loss, a wide range of trauma, and those seeking clearer self-understanding around whatever they are struggling with.

Christopher focuses on identifying the root of a client’s difficulties and supporting each person on a personalised path toward managing life’s hurdles. He combines attentive, client-centered listening with existential reflection and mindfulness techniques to help clients develop coping strategies, shift unhelpful patterns, and reconnect with inner resources.

Clients may seek him out for issues including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, body image and self-esteem challenges, parenting and fatherhood problems, career transitions, and matters related to intimacy and sexual health. He also works with LGBT clients and veterans, and addresses topics such as guilt, shame, infidelity, and midlife concerns.

Choosing to begin therapy is recognised as a significant act of strength; Christopher aims to honour that decision by offering collaborative, compassionate support as clients explore change, build resilience, and pursue their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Christopher Robertson draws on client-centered therapy to create a warm, non-judgmental environment where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and supporting each person to find their own solutions, which can be helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.

He also uses existential therapy to explore questions of meaning, choice, and personal responsibility. This approach helps clients facing uncertainty, midlife challenges, feelings of emptiness, or major life changes to clarify values and make intentional choices.

Mindfulness therapy is incorporated to teach present-moment awareness and practical tools for managing stress, anxiety, and emotional reactivity. These practices support clients in developing greater emotional balance and coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Christopher works collaboratively with clients to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts methods as the work evolves to align with what proves most effective for each person.

Online therapy with Christopher offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity across locations and time zones, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for the client while working with registered professionals and therapists.
