Christopher Ingram, BACP

Christopher Ingram is a BACP counsellor who supports people facing midlife changes, stress and anxiety. He helps with depression, addiction, trauma and grief. He also works with concerns such as ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, and questions around gender identity. Christopher offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk and think things through.

He uses a mix of practical approaches to match each person's needs. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now and on building skills to cope day to day. Christopher aims to make therapy straightforward and useful, not full of jargon.

His style is collaborative. He listens first, then helps people set clear, small goals. Therapy might include learning new ways to manage stress, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, or building stronger emotional awareness.

Christopher trained and practises using a blend of methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-based ideas. He draws on these to tailor work for issues like addiction, trauma, low self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Sessions are aimed at helping people find more balance and practical ways to handle difficult feelings. He encourages steady, manageable steps rather than quick fixes. Christopher's approach is focused on helping people build skills that last.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting pulled in by them. It focuses on what matters to the person and small actions aligned with those values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and teaches practical techniques to shift them, useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-based ideas focus on how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions and can help with relationship issues and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals and personal preference. That choice can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.
