About Cristina Jimenez

Cristina Jimenez is an ACA-accredited holistic counsellor and psychotherapist who brings a compassionate, client-centered approach to her work. She places emphasis on addressing both mind and body, aiming to create a foundation of safety and trust from which therapeutic change can emerge. Warmth, empathy, and steady presence inform her style, and she collaborates closely with clients to support meaningful progress and self-understanding.

Cristina specialises in individual counselling for adults and works with a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, interpersonal relationship difficulties, sexuality and intimacy, existential questions, and wider emotional exploration. She welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and affirms members of the LGBTIQ+ community, and her practice reflects an inclusive stance. The biography notes she is fluent in Spanish, which informs her engagement with multilingual clients.

In addition to talk-based therapy, Cristina is trained in dance movement therapy and draws on her background as a dancer to access somatic pathways of healing. She attends to subtle bodily cues and the innate wisdom of the body as part of the therapeutic process. Cristina is also a beginning-level student in the SE™ (Somatic Experiencing) Professional Training, furthering her skills in somatic approaches. The ACA accreditation mentioned indicates formal recognition by that organization.

Could remote therapy suit your needs?

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist remotely can make a real difference. For a wide range of common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions. This approach offers practical benefits that can make getting support more accessible for busy lives.

One of the main advantages is flexibility. Clients can connect with a licensed professional in the format that works best for them - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can help therapy fit around work, family, and other commitments. That convenience often makes it easier to maintain regular sessions and continue progress over time.

Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and many people find it straightforward to change therapists if they need a different fit. For those weighing options, remote therapy can be an effective and practical pathway to support and personal growth.
