About Christine
Christine Gooddy is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 13 years of experience working with adult survivors and other adults. She focuses on trauma and abuse, depression, grief, relationship and family concerns, and coping with life changes, using client-centred practice alongside other therapeutic methods.
Christine began with Person Centred counselling and continues to place the client at the centre of her work. She now combines that foundation with techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural and trauma-focused approaches to meet the needs people bring to sessions. The aim is practical: notice what is happening, try small shifts, and evaluate whether they help.
She brings long experience of group work with survivors of historic abuse as well as one-to-one sessions. That background has informed an interest in the mind-body link and why people respond the ways they do. Christine also draws on relationship-focused work when discussions involve partnership patterns or communication struggles.
Clients are offered straightforward tools to manage symptoms such as low mood, anger, or anxiety, alongside time to talk about grief, guilt, shame or past sexual assault and abuse. Christine also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, postpartum depression, hoarding, and questions about life purpose and midlife change.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Christine describes learning from her own experiences of depression and recovery and uses that perspective alongside clinical methods. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment via the online therapy options button.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own concerns and choices first, so online sessions focus on listening, reflecting and following what matters most to the client. This approach helps when people need space to make sense of trauma, grief or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical tasks to try between sessions; it is often used for depression, anxiety and self-esteem work. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends to the impact of past events on current reactions and uses paced, careful methods to reduce distress and build coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then choose methods together. That collaborative process guides whether sessions emphasise reflection, practical skill-building, relationship work or trauma-tailored techniques.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to choose arrangements that suit their schedules and attention, such as shorter appointments or sessions without video when that helps concentration.
