Dr Christina Johnson Counselling Psychologist London – Expert, Compassionate Care

Dr Christina Johnson Counselling Psychologist London offers compassionate, evidence-based support tailored to each client’s needs. She brings more than a decade of experience into her work, helping people navigate trauma, emotional distress, and relationship challenges. Her client-centred approach builds trust and promotes meaningful healing from the very first session.

Specialist Qualifications and Clinical Background

Dr Johnson began her academic journey at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh, where she earned an honours degree in Applied Psychology in 2009. Later, she pursued her Doctorate in Counselling Psychology through a joint programme at Glasgow Caledonian University and the University of Strathclyde, graduating in 2013. Afterward, she specialised in psycho-oncology, supporting individuals affected by cancer through both individual therapy and group interventions.

In addition to her clinical work, she delivered professional training sessions aimed at improving emotional support for patients and families. These experiences laid the foundation for her well-rounded and deeply informed therapeutic style.

Trauma-Focused Therapy with a Holistic Edge

In her private practice, Dr Christina Johnson Counselling Psychologist London specialises in trauma work using advanced therapeutic tools. Her training in EMDR, Polyvagal Theory, and Somatic Experiencing allows her to treat trauma not just emotionally, but physically as well. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, she integrates mind-body techniques that promote deep, sustainable recovery.

Because she understands the body holds the story of trauma, her approach includes yoga-informed somatic awareness. This allows clients to reconnect with themselves in powerful, restorative ways.

Helping Couples Reconnect and Strengthen Their Bonds

Strong relationships require intentional care, and Dr Johnson offers just that. Her training in Couples Therapy equips her to help partners rediscover connection and navigate conflict more effectively. Instead of focusing only on problems, she supports couples in building mutual understanding and cooperation.

Therapy becomes a safe space for partners to express vulnerability, explore unmet needs, and build a relationship that feels truly nurtured—not just maintained.

Broad Emotional Support for Complex Challenges

Though she focuses on PTSD, Complex Trauma, and Relationship difficulties, Dr Johnson also treats anxiety, depression, grief, work-related stress, self-esteem issues, and adjustment to physical health changes. Each session is collaborative, with treatment tailored to the person rather than the diagnosis.

Additionally, her professional experience spans private practice, the NHS, and insurance-based care—giving her the flexibility to meet clients where they are, both emotionally and logistically.
