About Christopher "Chris" Rice

Christopher "Chris" Rice is a United Kingdom based counsellor with four years of practical experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. He works with issues such as anxiety and panic, depression, relationship difficulties, work-related stress, social anxiety, bereavement, low self-esteem, and motivation, helping clients move toward a more fulfilling daily life.

He has developed additional experience working with people who have neurological conditions, including Autism, ADHD, traumatic brain injuries, and epilepsy, offering understanding and practical strategies that respect each individual situation. Chris draws on a blended approach, combining Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to tailor support to each person he meets.

As a registered member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - he brings an informed, professional framework to his practice while maintaining a warm and approachable manner. His use of client-centered listening creates a calm space to explore thoughts and feelings, and he integrates CBT techniques to address unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to distress.

Chris believes that thoughts and behaviors shape how people feel and act, and that targeted work on these areas can reduce symptoms and increase wellbeing. Reaching out can be difficult, and he aims to offer steady, supportive guidance for those ready to take the next step.

Approaches and Practical Benefits of Online Therapy with Chris

Christopher "Chris" Rice uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist follows. This approach helps people feel heard and valued while they explore emotions, relationships, and life decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used alongside client-centered work to identify and modify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors - a practical method often applied for anxiety, low mood, and patterns that undermine confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Chris works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time so the work fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter or more frequent contact can be arranged through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work and family commitments, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home or other comfortable settings, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists who focus on practical, effective care.
