CHRISTIAN K HUGHES

Move forward from the patterns keeping you stuck.
Whether you are dealing with the effects of trauma, navigating a crisis in your relationship, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, low mood, or grief, or struggling to make the kinds of changes you want to see in your life, therapy offers a structured path toward clarity, relief, and meaningful change.
​
I provide a professional, compassionate, and results-focused environment where we work together to understand your difficulties and develop practical tools for lasting change.
I’m Christian Hughes, a BABCP-accredited Psychotherapist. I offer structured, evidence-based, therapy that focuses on what keeps the problem going — and what will actually change it.
You can work with me in person in Stourbridge, or online across the UK.
Why Work With Me?
With over 18 years of experience within the NHS, military environments, and private practice, I bring a wealth of clinical expertise to our sessions.
Accredited Excellence: I am a BABCP Accredited practitioner, ensuring the highest standards of CBT delivery.
Tailored Approach: I don't use "one size fits all" models. I integrate the best of EMDR, ACT, and CBT to fit your specific needs with an outcome focused approach, designed to help you do more than just talk but instead move effectively towards your personal goals
Fewer Sessions, Better Results: My goal isn't to keep you in therapy for years. By using high-intensity models, we aim for measurable change in a shorter timeframe.
How I can help
Individual therapy
For anxiety, overthinking, low mood, trauma symptoms, burnout, confidence issues, and patterns you can’t shift on your own. Individual psychological therapy draws from a range of evidence-based psychological approaches including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, EMDR Therapy, and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT).
Relationship therapy
For couples stuck in repeating conflict, emotional distance, loss of trust, resentment, or “we can’t communicate without it going wrong”.
EMDR Therapy
Specialist trauma focused therapy with a focus on reducing the impact of intrusive or distressing memories.
