About Christoper
Christoper Schippers-Wakeling is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and issues with motivation and anger.
He helps people talk through difficult feelings and thoughts. Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. Christoper encourages open discussion so clients can say what they need without judgement.
His work covers a wide range of problems including grief, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulties, parenting strain, workplace stress and mood disorders. He also supports people with questions around sexuality, non-monogamous relationships, and LGBT matters.
Additional focus areas include attachment and control issues, dissociation, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity and compassion fatigue. He has experience supporting men and people with intellectual disability alongside others facing panic attacks or social anxiety.
Christoper uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and works collaboratively to find approaches that suit each person. He asks about current difficulties and what a better situation would look like, then discusses practical steps to try between sessions.
To begin, he suggests using the site’s matching process to describe your concerns and arrange an initial session. This lets him and the client agree the best way to work together before ongoing sessions are scheduled.

Approaches and remote working with evidence-based techniques
Christoper draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thoughts and behaviours to reduce symptoms and improve everyday functioning. These approaches typically involve identifying unhelpful patterns, testing new ways of thinking and practising different behaviours between sessions. They can help with anxiety, panic attacks, mood problems and workplace stress.He also uses relational and attachment-informed ways of working that pay attention to how relationships shape feelings and reactions. This can be useful for intimacy concerns, difficulties with trust and for people navigating separation or non-monogamous relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals and preferences, try methods in session and review what helps. Clients collaborate with him to adjust the plan based on what feels most useful.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use remote work to maintain consistency and to support people who are managing busy schedules.
