About Christopher
Christopher "Chris" Rice is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience supporting people through difficult times. He holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as his professional credential, and offers practical, down-to-earth help for everyday struggles. Chris focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.
He also helps people who are coping with grief, life changes, sleep problems and addictions. Relationship concerns, communication problems and men's issues are among other areas he works with.
Background and approach
His approach combines Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, so sessions include attentive listening alongside practical exercises. He gives people space to talk while suggesting ways to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Chris has experience supporting clients who live with neurological conditions and chronic health problems.
He can talk through challenges linked to autism, attention differences, brain injury and epilepsy when relevant to the person's concerns. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used so people can schedule sessions with him according to availability.
He aims to be supportive and straightforward, helping people build tools, regain confidence and move toward a more satisfying life.

Approaches Christopher lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses structured exercises and practical strategies to help reduce anxiety, lift mood and change unhelpful patterns of behaviour.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together they will decide whether a more listening-led style, CBT techniques, or a mix suits the person best. The process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy offers flexibility that can fit around work and family life. Video calls let people use visual cues and more natural conversation. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit those who prefer typing, want brief ongoing support, or need to work through thoughts between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals offer these options so people can pick the format that fits practical needs and personal comfort.
