Christopher Masters, BACP, NCPS

Christopher Masters offers calm, direct support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or problems in close relationships. He helps individuals who are struggling with confidence, motivation, or the effects of past trauma and abuse. He works with clients in English and accepts international clients. Christopher holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has eight years of experience.

He focuses on clear, practical conversations rather than jargon. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, with straightforward goals and steps to try between meetings. He listens for the patterns that make life harder - such as attachment worries, abandonment fears, or repeated communication problems - and helps people test new ways of responding.

Christopher also supports people dealing with chronic pain, illness and disability who find these add strain to everyday life. He works with issues like guilt, shame, body image and impulsivity by breaking concerns into small, manageable pieces. This can make day-to-day choices feel easier.

He aims to be respectful and sensitive in every conversation. Therapy is framed as a collaboration where the client’s goals guide the work. The style is practical and steady, with an emphasis on what helps in real life.

When someone is ready to begin, Christopher asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to his availability. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

Evidence-based approaches and online therapy

Christopher’s biography refers to his use of evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a general way. Two common evidence-based approaches are described here to give a sense of what therapy might involve. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small changes in thinking and behaviour; these methods can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Trauma-informed approaches attend to the effects of past harm by pacing the work, building coping skills and helping a person feel more in control of reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit the client’s goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made so the plan stays relevant.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Some people find shorter check-ins easier to manage during a work break, and others prefer not being on camera when first starting. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so check current options before booking to confirm how sessions will be delivered.
