About Chris

Chris Wilson is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. He works in an integrative-relational way, drawing on different therapeutic approaches to suit each person. He aims to offer a respectful and compassionate space for people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem and anger.

He has four years of experience and has worked in custody settings supporting people with addiction, anger and trauma. He has also supported professional athletes and performers through injury, retirement and other life transitions. In private practice he sees people managing a wide range of life challenges and changes.

Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of him. He helps people talk through difficult feelings, learn new ways to cope and make choices that fit their values. Practical steps are combined with time to reflect on patterns that keep causing harm or distress.

His approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based ways of working and client-centred practice alongside psychodynamic and existential ideas. That mix allows flexibility and means plans are adjusted as work progresses. He explains options simply and involves people in agreeing goals.

Chris aims to make starting therapy straightforward. He asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then to schedule sessions. Fees vary with location and the service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting taken over by them, and then choose actions that match their values. This can be useful when stress, anxiety or anger get in the way of daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand and change repeating dynamics in connection and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and will suggest ways of working together. Decisions about which approaches to use are made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online or remote formats, so please confirm available session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, travel or family life, reduce time spent travelling and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people also find it simpler to maintain continuity of care during life transitions when sessions can be arranged without travel.
