About Christine
Christine Burcham uses an integrative, humanist approach to counselling. She combines practical talking methods with a warm, person-focused style. Christine aims to help people manage anxiety, stress, low confidence and difficulties in relationships.
Sessions are plain and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on what feels useful right now. She works from several evidence-informed approaches and picks techniques to suit each person. That might mean noticing unhelpful thinking patterns, exploring attachment and relationship themes, or focusing on values and small changes.
Background and approach
Christine describes therapy as a shared process where the client’s knowledge about themselves matters. Her background includes five years of direct counselling experience and many years working in social care and the NHS. That combination has shaped a practical way of working with trauma, grief, depression and other emotional difficulties.
She is familiar with issues such as addiction, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Christine supports people facing life transitions, work pressures and compassion fatigue, and she helps those coping with relationship and intimacy-related struggles. She also works with concerns linked to attachment, abandonment and communication problems.
Her practice is inclusive of LGBT people and diverse identities. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat or messaging. Christine is registered with the BACP, and she practises from the United Kingdom.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christine will discuss goals and preferences and adapt techniques as the work develops. Clients and therapist review what helps and adjust the plan together, so the approach stays relevant to each person’s needs.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and messaging or live chat can suit ongoing reflections or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and other commitments, while keeping the focus on steady progress.
