About Christina
Christina Caffrey offers a calm, straightforward approach to therapy. She uses client-centred work and attachment ideas to help people make sense of current problems. Christina has 12 years of practical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief and depression.
She treats intimacy-related difficulties and relationship concerns by listening first and helping clients name what matters most. Christina also supports people facing ADHD, parenting strain, sleeping and eating problems, and the emotional impact of chronic illness.
How Christina works
She pays attention to how past experiences shape present patterns. Her style is conversational and respectful. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and on small steps that feel doable.
Christina encourages people to notice their own strengths and resources as part of working through hard times. She draws on narrative ideas to help people reframe unhelpful stories about themselves. Mindfulness techniques are used to manage overwhelming feelings and bring attention back to the present.
Attachment-based thinking helps identify how early relationships affect current trust and connection. Christina works with people dealing with loss, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, anger, and major life changes. She also addresses more specialised concerns such as adoption and foster care issues, ageing and geriatric topics, autism and attachment issues.
Her approach combines listening, reflection, and practical tools to help people move forward.

Therapeutic approaches online for real-life challenges
Christina uses client-centred therapy, attachment-based ideas and mindfulness in online sessions. Client-centred therapy means conversations focus on the client's own goals and pace, helping people feel heard and understood and guiding practical next steps. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of closeness and trust and can help with intimacy-related issues and repeated relationship difficulties. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce overwhelming feelings and improve sleep and mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts the mix of listening, reflection and practical tools as the work progresses.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues for deeper discussion. Phone sessions can be easier when less bandwidth or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick reflections, journalling between sessions or ongoing check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping focus on meaningful change.
