About Chris
Counsellor (BACP), 5 years' experience. Chris Nicholls helps people with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem and a wide range of life changes and relationship issues. He works with concerns including depression, addictions, trauma and intimacy-related worries, as well as parenting and career pressures. Sessions are conducted in English and Chris practises in the United Kingdom.
Chris describes therapy as a team process. He uses a person-centred approach that lets the client steer the pace. He also draws on emotionally-focused ideas, mindfulness techniques and solution-focused methods to respond to different needs.
Chris has completed a master’s degree in Emotion Focused Therapy, which he uses alongside other methods to shape sessions. He emphasises direct, practical conversation and short-term strategies when they suit the person’s goals. He has experience supporting people facing bereavement, illness, caregiver strain and addiction-related problems.
Sessions aim to clarify what matters most to the individual and to try manageable steps between meetings. Chris says he prefers an interactive style where the client and counsellor decide the tempo together. He also notes that some people benefit from learning mindfulness skills to reduce anxiety or from solution-focused planning to address specific problems.

How his therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities. The counsellor follows the client’s lead, reflecting feelings and clarifying what matters so the client can set the pace. This approach helps with low mood, confidence issues and decisions about life changes.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on understanding emotional responses in relationships and attachment. It helps people name and process strong feelings and can be useful for grief, abandonment concerns and attachment issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chris will discuss different methods and test what helps, working collaboratively with the client to shape the focus and tempo of sessions. That discussion guides whether to prioritise emotion work, mindfulness practice or short-term, solution-focused planning.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel and can reduce time spent commuting. Some formats are better for brief check-ins or when a meeting without video is preferred, while others suit longer conversational sessions or guided mindfulness exercises. Registered or accredited professionals can help tailor the session type to a person's practical needs and goals.
