About Christine
Christine Asikuru welcomes people who are worried about relationships, stress, anxiety, grief or changes in life. She aims to make conversations straightforward and calm. Christine writes plainly with a focus on helping people understand their feelings and cope better.
Christine has nine years of counselling experience, including work in an educational setting offering one-to-one and group support. She holds a BA (Hons) in Counselling and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Background and approach
She has also completed a foundation degree at diploma level 5 and counselling skills certificates. Her approach is person-centred at its core, which means she listens and follows the pace the person needs. She also draws on cognitive-behavioural ways of working, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment ideas, and emotionally-focused approaches when they suit someone’s situation.
In sessions Christine helps people notice repeating patterns and painful feelings. She supports practical next steps alongside emotional understanding, so people can try different ways of coping and relating. Conversations may look at family history, attachment or feelings around abandonment where these are relevant.
Sessions have been offered face to face and online, including video calls and telephone work in previous roles. Christine also provided counselling to students and parents while working in education, and she welcomes international clients in English. To begin, people typically complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a session.
Christine aims to make early sessions about understanding current problems and agreeing clear, manageable goals.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on helping people recognise and name core feelings and attachment needs. In online work this means sessions often centre on noticing emotional patterns and trying new ways of relating to those feelings in the moment. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. Online ACT sessions typically include short experiential exercises and practical steps to try between meetings. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre and relies on careful listening and thoughtful reflection. This approach fits video or phone sessions well because the main work is the quality of the conversation and the counsellor's responsiveness. Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk about what feels most relevant and try different methods to see what helps most based on goals and preferences. Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life. Video is often used for deeper conversational work, phone calls can suit people with low bandwidth, and chat or messaging is useful for brief check-ins or when written reflection helps. These options make therapy more flexible and accessible for a wide range of needs.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
