About Chris
Chris Wilson uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people navigate stress, anxiety and major life changes. He works in a straightforward way and aims to create a calm space where people can talk about what matters to them. Chris holds BACP accreditation, which he uses to guide his practice in the United Kingdom.
He draws on several ways of working to match sessions to an individual's needs. That means therapy can focus on actions and values, on how early relationships shape present behaviour, or on building a trusting, supportive conversation.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to be clear and down-to-earth rather than full of jargon. Chris has four years of professional experience. He has worked in community settings and in a prison environment supporting people through addiction, anger and trauma.
He has also worked with athletes and performers through injury, retirement and other transitions. In independent practice he meets people face to face to address relationship difficulties, self esteem, grief, career concerns and issues around intimacy and sexuality. He also helps people dealing with ADHD, addictions and the fallout from family breakdown.
People can expect a tailored plan that focuses on what they want to change. Chris emphasises respect, sensitivity and a non-judgemental attitude. He aims to help clients take small, manageable steps toward a steadier life.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, and then shape sessions together. That collaborative process means strategies can change as needs evolve rather than being fixed from the start.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow longer, face-to-face conversations while phone sessions need less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer not to use video. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
