Christian Minsansa, BACP

Christian Minsansa specialises in domestic abuse, abuse and trauma, offering focused support to people working to understand how their relationships and past experiences influence their present life. He provides counselling to both men and women affected by abuse and also supports clients with a broader range of concerns, helping them explore day-to-day struggles and regain a greater sense of purpose and balance.

Christian aims to help clients discover their own answers and build practical skills for coping, self-esteem, and confidence. He creates a nonjudgmental space where people can challenge limiting beliefs and work toward feeling more fulfilled. His approach is rooted in listening and collaboration, guiding each person to identify goals and small, achievable steps toward change.

Christian holds the BACP credential - a professional membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy that reflects recognised training and ethical standards for counsellors in the United Kingdom. While he previously offered face-to-face sessions in a garden counselling room, he has shifted to remote working and now provides sessions by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to keep counselling accessible and responsive to client needs.

Therapeutic approaches for remote counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. It helps people explore attachment styles, improve emotional connection, and address difficulties such as abandonment fears, trust issues, or relationship instability. Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, offering empathic listening and support to help people find their own answers and build self-esteem; this approach can be useful for coping with life changes, low confidence, and decision-making. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes that lead toward clients’ goals, helping to break problems into manageable actions and to build momentum toward improvement.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Christian works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as progress and circumstances evolve. This shared process helps tailor sessions to what works best for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to engage from different locations and schedules. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support around work or family commitments, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
