I’m Christina, a trauma, relationships & eating disorders therapist. I also work with mental health difficulties such as anxiety and depression. I may be a good fit for you if you have experienced relationship trauma such as domestic and sexual abuse or an eating disorder. These experiences may have affected your self-worth, confidence, and relationship with your body. You may also have noticed feeling anxious or trauma-bonded in relationships. I help you to increase your confidence and self-esteem, overcome trauma and develop a healthy relationships with yourself and with others. I can also help you to improve your body image.
I can help by offering you a kind and safe relationship, where together we work through what you are bringing to counselling at your own pace. I will offer you compassion and non-judgment, alongside practical tools and techniques to improve your mental health, relationships and overcome trauma in a space where you feel safe and comfortable.
There is no pressure to commit to sessions today, but if you would like to understand more about counselling or whether we could be a good fit in working together, please feel free to reach out. The first step is often the hardest but can change your journey and recovery.

Therapy is a personal investment in yourself. I like to think of paying for therapy as similar to paying for a gym membership for our physical body. Therapy is 'mind membership'. I also offer concessions for NHS staff, students and trainee counsellors.

I qualified as an integrative counsellor combining CBT and humanistic therapies. I have completed training in compassion-focussed therapy and trauma focussed CBT. Throughout sessions, I provide a gentle, non-judgmental space and incorporate a range of techniques depending on each client's individual needs. The client is at the center of any therapy and I prioritise what works for each person.
