About Chris
Chris Sergeant helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, addiction and grief. He is a counsellor with the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, BACP. Chris presents a calm, practical style and focuses on what you want to change.
He mixes talking-based approaches to suit each person. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at making things feel more manageable. Chris works with common problems such as anger, low self-esteem, intimacy concerns and career or life changes.
Background and approach
Clients bring a wide range of issues. These include family problems, parenting pressures, themes from family of origin, abandonment and codependency. He also supports people dealing with divorce and separation, infidelity, drug and alcohol addiction, and post-traumatic stress.
In practice he draws on client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques, psychodynamic thinking and systemic ways of looking at relationships. He also offers hypnotherapy as one of several options to support change. The emphasis is on finding what helps you make steady progress.
Chris has worked in the field for 13 years. He aims to build a collaborative working relationship and to help people find clearer direction. Sessions are adapted to the person rather than forcing a single approach.
He works in the United Kingdom and holds the BACP credential. If you are considering counselling, Chris can take time to understand your goals and suggest practical steps to move forward.

Online support
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and teaches practical steps to change them. It can help with stress, panic, anger and patterns that affect everyday life.
Hypnotherapy is offered as a tool to access focused attention and support change in habits, confidence or unhelpful reactions. It is used alongside talking therapies rather than as a single solution.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals and preferences. That means starting with what you want to achieve and adjusting methods as you go.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls are close to a face-to-face meeting and good for deeper conversations. Phone sessions work with lower bandwidth and can feel easier when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging suits shorter check-ins or people who process better in writing. These options help fit counselling around work, family or other commitments without losing the therapeutic focus.
