About Christian
Christian Jackson is a counsellor with seven years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. He holds BACP registration, and he approaches each person as the expert of their own story. He aims to make the first steps toward therapy feel manageable and respectful of the courage it takes to begin.
He uses Narrative-informed ways of working that gently separate a person from the problems they face. That helps people see their difficulties as parts of their experience, not as their whole identity.
Background and approach
He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred ideas to help people notice what matters to them and to build actions around those values. Christian helps with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and relationship struggles.
He also supports people dealing with grief, parenting pressures, career shifts, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress and communication problems. In sessions he listens for the patterns that keep problems active and works with people to try different ways of responding.
Conversations are practical and grounded. Clients can expect a collaborative pace, simple experiments between sessions, and a focus on small, achievable changes. Christian offers online support in English and accepts international clients.
He describes therapy as a joint process of testing ideas, re-authoring narratives, and building real-life steps that match each person’s priorities.

Online session options
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Christian combines Narrative ways of working with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-based ideas. Narrative approaches help people tell and re-shape their life stories so problems feel less defining. This can be useful for issues like trauma, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match a person’s values, which suits stress, anxiety and motivation concerns. Attachment-based ideas look at patterns of relating and help people understand how early bonds can affect current relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christian discusses different methods with each person and together they choose what fits the client’s goals and preferences. Sessions are collaborative and adapt over time as needs change, so the plan can shift if something isn’t helping.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for deeper conversations and visual connection, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to use video. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving or travel.
