About me and my therapy practice
Hello, my name is Christine 鈥 脕ine, although most people call me 脕ine. I am the founder of Tarvin Therapy, a private counselling practice based near Chester in the UK. Alongside face-to-face sessions, I also offer online and telephone counselling to clients across the UK and beyond.
Originally from the Republic of Ireland, I relocated to the Chester area in 2008. I am often described as warm, kind, genuine and approachable, with a good sense of humour 鈥 qualities I bring into every session.
I am passionate about creating a safe, welcoming and non-judgmental space where you can feel comfortable in exploring your thoughts and experiences at your own pace. I work with adults as well as children and young people aged 11 鈥 18, and offer flexible options including face-to-face, online, telephone or blended sessions.

Practice description
I feel a great importance on building a trusting and supportive relationship, where you feel safe and encouraged to share whatever is on your mind. I understand that opening up, especially about feelings you may not have shared before, can feel daunting. That鈥檚 why my aim is to offer a place where you feel heard, understood, and accepted.
My first session
I offer a complimentary 15-minute telephone or video call for prospective clients. This gives you the chance to ask any questions, share your needs, expectations, and concerns, and consider any goals you may have. It also allows us both to see whether we feel comfortable working together before starting therapy.
Counselling is not about being given advice or being told what to do. It is a collaborative process, where we work together to build a trusting and respectful therapeutic relationship...

Practice description
As an Integrative Counsellor, I draw on a range of approaches,including psychodynamic theory, person-centred therapy, and CBT. This allows me to tailor our sessions to your specific individual needs and goals. Together, we can begin to gently explore patterns in your behaviour, develop an understanding and awareness of your thoughts and memories, and create practical tools to support you in your day-to-day life.
I feel a great importance on building a trusting and supportive relationship, where you feel safe and encouraged to share whatever is on your mind. I understand that opening up, especially about feelings you may not have shared before, can feel daunting. That鈥檚 why my aim is to offer a place where you feel heard, understood, and accepted.
You don鈥檛 have to face things alone. I will walk alongside you as you move towards greater self-awareness, healing, and becoming the person you want to be.
My first session
I offer a free, initial 15-minute telephone or video call for prospective clients. This gives you the chance to ask any questions, share your needs, expectations, and concerns, and consider any goals you may have.
