Christina Young, BACP

Christina Young is a person-centered counsellor who specialises in supporting people experiencing grief, anxiety, depression and loss. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and a member of the British Infertility Counselling Association (BICA), which reflects her focused work with those affected by fertility and pregnancy-related challenges. Christina offers particular expertise for people navigating infertility, whether primary or secondary, and for those preparing for, undergoing or finishing fertility treatment.

She provides a compassionate space for people who have suffered baby loss, including miscarriage, stillbirth or loss after birth, recognising how these events can shatter expectations and bring complex, painful emotions. Christina helps people to name and normalise feelings of grief, fear and loss of control, and supports them in expressing worries about the future. She understands how such experiences can affect work, finances, family relationships and friendships, and explores these wider impacts in therapy.

Every therapeutic journey is treated as unique, and Christina creates a non-judgmental environment where difficult emotions such as anger, envy, isolation, stress and uncertainty can be explored. While counselling cannot erase pain, she aims to reduce trauma responses and feelings of isolation by offering a listening, reflective space. Christina also works with a charitable organisation that supports those affected by fertility and pregnancy-related mental health and baby loss.

Person-Centered Support Online and Therapeutic Approaches

Christina practices client-centered therapy, an approach that places the individual at the heart of the work and prioritises empathy, acceptance and active listening. This style helps people make sense of difficult emotions, build self-understanding and find their own solutions when dealing with issues such as grief, anxiety, relationship strain and changes related to fertility.

Alongside this core approach she offers gentle, focused support for those affected by fertility and pregnancy-related loss, creating a space to process complex feelings such as shame, guilt, anger and uncertainty. This form of care is aimed at helping people rebuild coping strategies and clarify what they need as they move forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Christina collaborates with each person to identify what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences. She works with clients to adapt the pace and focus of sessions so therapy fits each individual journey.

Online therapy with Christina is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and circumstances. These options make it easier for people to access licensed professionals from their own location and to continue therapy through life transitions, travel or when in-person appointments are not practical.
