About Christopher
Christopher Ingram is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression and questions about gender and sexuality. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who want to talk through hard moments. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now and finding practical ways to cope.
Christopher uses a blend of approaches that he tailors to each person. He draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot and change unhelpful thinking.
Background and approach
He also uses acceptance and commitment approaches to help people move towards what matters to them. His work includes attention to attachment patterns and emotional regulation. People bring many kinds of difficulties, from grief and relationship strain to bipolar mood swings and challenges with self-esteem.
He also supports those coping with ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, chronic health issues, and compassion fatigue. LGBT issues and identity are part of his listed focus areas and may be discussed in sessions. Sessions are collaborative and practical.
Christopher aims to help people develop clearer goals and small, achievable steps. He explains ideas plainly and checks in about what’s helpful. Therapy often includes learning new skills, practising them between sessions, and reviewing progress together.
Christopher has three years of clinical experience and practises in the United Kingdom. He works in English and accepts international clients. If you want to explore therapy, he asks you to complete the service’s short matching questionnaire to begin the process.

How Christopher’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps toward the life they value. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain distress and practising alternative ways of responding. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current reactions and helps people build safer ways of connecting with others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christopher will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will choose methods to try. That collaborative process means the plan can change as you learn what helps most.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel. It also allows for shorter check-ins, sessions without video if that suits you better, and the chance to join from different locations when needed. Registered or accredited professionals offering online therapy can use these flexible arrangements to help therapy fit everyday life.
