About Christopher
Christopher Hurd welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by worry, low mood, difficult relationships, or problems with addiction. He starts by listening to what matters to each person and works at a steady pace to build understanding. Christopher believes clients know themselves best and that therapy should draw on those strengths to make small, useful changes.
He uses a blend of approaches tailored to the person in front of him.
Background and approach
Hypnotherapy appears alongside talking therapies to help with stress, anxiety and habits. Client-Centred work keeps conversations focused on what the client wants to achieve, while Emotionally-Focused Therapy supports people dealing with relationship pain or attachment wounds. Christopher has four years of professional practice and holds NCPS as a credential.
He aims to make sessions straightforward and practical. Expect calm, patient contact and an emphasis on understanding how past experiences affect current feelings and choices. Typical concerns he sees include depression, grief, self-esteem and coping with life changes.
He also supports people facing parenting strain, career crossroads, body image worries and a wide range of trauma-related issues. Christopher is willing to work with people on substance use and addictive behaviours. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged across different time zones for international clients.
He encourages a collaborative approach - goals are set together and reviewed as therapy progresses.

Therapy approaches and online working
Christopher offers hypnotherapy as one option to help with stress, anxiety and habitual patterns; it uses guided relaxation and focused attention to work with mood and behaviour. Client-Centred Therapy is also central to his work and focuses on listening and reflecting so the client sets the pace and goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and change patterns in close relationships by identifying core emotions and attachment needs.Choosing which approach to use happens together. The therapist will talk through each option and adapt methods to the client's goals, preferences and how they respond in early sessions. That collaborative stance aims to find the best fit rather than imposing one single method.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for full face-to-face conversations, phone sessions work well when lower bandwidth is needed, live chat can suit shorter check-ins and text messaging lets people exchange thoughts between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, travel or differing schedules and make continuity easier for international clients.
