I am a counsellor/psychotherapist working in Northern Ireland for the past 5 years. My background is in psychology and criminology. I have experience working in the charity sector and now own and run my own counselling and holistic therapies business. I really enjoy working with adults of all ages and have experience working with clients presenting with issues such as self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, self-harm and suicidal ideation. I particularly enjoy working with women suffering from low self-worth. I realise how daunting coming to counselling may be, and so I offer a warm, safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment where we can work together to improve your lifestyle and mental health.
My approach to helping you deal with your issues is by developing simple techniques that can be used in your ever-day life to improve your mindset and lifestyle. I use Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Trauma-focused and Somatic Therapy approaches. I have had great success in helping my clients identify and use problem-solving strategies as a way of moving forward. I believe in the counselling process and find it extremely rewarding work.
People come to counselling because they want 'change', together we can explore what this change may be and how best to achieve it in your life. I understand how difficult it may be to reach out for help, but you have now already taken the first brave step. If you believe I could help to empower you , please do not hesitate to contact me today

Christine is a great therapist. Compassionate and understanding and has allowed me to have great trust in her to address current and past trauma. I look forward to continuing to work with Christine as she makes me feel at ease and understand my thoughts and feelings better.

Christine is really nice and understanding. We are still working on anxiety and OCD but the exercises she has given me has helped me to calm my anxiety down.

Christine is an incredible person and she's helped me discover and face so many things. I feel fortunate to have met her and feel better than I have in many many years. You want a talented and experienced therapist who doesn't judge but will get things out of you that have been stewing for years AND help you get through it? Christine is it.

Christine has enabled me to take more control over my life, even after just 3 sessions. I joined BetterHelp without many expectations but immediately felt that Christine listened to me and offered tangible and actionable advice, making me feel like I could progress quite quickly in such a short space of time. I felt at ease with her from day one and she has quickly recognised what I need. I look forward to continuing my journey with her.
