About me and my therapy practice
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but it might be the most important one you take for yourself. I’m Christopher Galvin MBACP, BA Hons Iam an Integrative psychotherapist with a person-centred core. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore whatever you’re going through. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, addiction, loneliness, or just feel stuck in life, therapy can help you make sense of things and move forward.
I specialise in addiction and recovery, drawing from both professional experience and my own journey as a recovering alcoholic. I understand how isolating and overwhelming it can feel when you’re facing inner battles that others can’t see. You don’t have to face them alone. Together, we can work through difficult emotions, unhelpful patterns, and past experiences to help you reconnect with who you are and what you need.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to you. Therapy isn’t about being “fixed” it’s about finding clarity, building resilience, and creating lasting change. I offer sessions online via WhatsApp or Zoom, making therapy more accessible and comfortable from wherever you are.
If something here resonates with you, I invite you to reach out. It’s okay not to have all the answers, all you need is a willingness to begin.
Practice description
My private practice offers a calm, confidential space where your thoughts, feelings, and experiences are valued and understood. Offering online & Face to Face therapy for adults seeking clarity, support, and emotional healing. Face to face sessions only availible within the Fylde Coast area, whether at my location or yours. No matter if you're navigating addiction, anxiety, low self-worth, relationship struggles, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life, I’m here to help you feel heard and supported.
With a person-centred foundation, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches to suit you — not the other way around. I specialise in working with addiction and recovery, and as a recovering alcoholic myself, I bring both lived experience and clinical training to the work we do together. This allows me to meet clients with deep empathy, free from judgment or assumption.
My practice is entirely online, offering flexibility and comfort from wherever you are. Sessions are held via Zoom or WhatsApp video call, making therapy more accessible, especially for those with busy lives or those who prefer to engage from a familiar space. My clients often describe our sessions as a grounding experience where they can be completely themselves.
If you're feeling lost, stuck, or simply ready for something to change — my practice offers a space for you to slow down, reflect, and begin that process. You’re not alone in this, and I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
My first session
First session is an initial consultation to see what issues you are facing and to see if I can work within my competency to help you. Also this gives us both an opportunity to see if we can work with and feel comfortable with each other and I can answer any questions you may have about therapy and how it works.
