About Christopher
Christopher "Chris" Rice is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. He also supports people dealing with relationship concerns, self-esteem problems, grief and addictions.
Chris draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). In sessions he listens and helps people talk through what matters to them. He uses practical CBT techniques when helpful to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Many people come to him because daily moods, worry or family tensions are getting in the way. He also has experience supporting people with neurological conditions and with sleep problems. Blended family issues are listed among his focus areas when merged households raise questions about roles and routines.
Sessions are presented in plain language and focus on steps the client can try between meetings. Chris describes work that looks at thinking patterns and day-to-day actions. He aims to help clients develop clearer ways to cope and respond when stress or low mood arise.
His way of working suits someone who prefers straightforward discussion and practical tools. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to set up an initial session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How his approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The counsellor follows what the client brings and helps them make sense of their own thoughts and feelings. This approach is useful when someone needs to talk through confusion, grief or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It introduces practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and coping with life changes.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. Christopher will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He checks in and adjusts techniques as progress is reviewed.
Confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can be helpful for fitting therapy into a busy week, allowing shorter check-ins or sessions that avoid travel. They can also make it easier to maintain contact while juggling work, appointments or new household routines.
