About Christoper

Christoper Schippers-Wakeling helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and workplace strain. He supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, self-esteem struggles, addictions, grief and sleep problems. He also works with people coping with life changes, parenting pressures and compassion fatigue. Christoper is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has four years of professional experience in the UK.

He aims to make sessions feel straightforward and down-to-earth. He creates a calm space where people can talk about what matters without feeling judged. Conversations focus on what is getting in the way now and on small steps that can help. He encourages practical changes alongside talking things through.

Christoper tailors his way of working to each person. He listens for patterns such as attachment or control issues, and then helps people think about different ways to respond. He can support those exploring sexuality, non-monogamous relationships, or recovery from trauma and abuse. He also works with men who are addressing guilt, shame or impulsivity.

His approach is collaborative and paced to the client. He aims to build confidence and clearer decision-making over time. He explains options plainly and helps people try new strategies between sessions.

Christoper works from the United Kingdom and speaks English. He is open to working with international clients through the site, and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Christoper uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical work. One common strand is helping people recognise unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour, then testing small changes to see what helps with anxiety, panic or mood problems. Another strand is exploring attachment and relational patterns to improve intimacy, self-esteem and how someone copes with conflict or loss.

Finding the right way of working is part of the therapy process. He approaches this collaboratively, discussing goals and preferences and adjusting methods as sessions progress. Clients and therapist decide together which approaches feel most useful for day-to-day problems and longer-term change.

The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. It can make it simpler to have a focused check-in during a work break or to avoid travel time. Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not specify formats here, and ask about options that best fit your routine and needs.
