Christina Griffin

Christina Griffin is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or low self-esteem. She also supports those coping with grief and relationship difficulties. Christina aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and respectful.

Christina creates an open space where people can speak without judgement. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person sitting in the room. She listens for patterns from the past that affect current choices and relationships. She also helps people notice thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going.

Her work draws on client-centred principles, which put the person’s experience at the heart of the session. She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help spot and shift unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness and psychodynamic perspectives may be woven in to support greater self-awareness when needed.

Typical topics she addresses include confidence and motivation, attachment and abandonment concerns, communication and commitment issues, and coping with chronic illness or caregiver stress. Christina can also talk through sensitive areas such as eating issues, domestic violence, and the emotional impact of separation.

She aims to work at a pace that suits each person and to agree practical steps together. People who want a straightforward, empathetic counsellor who listens and helps them try small changes may find this approach useful.

How Christina’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s perspective first. The counsellor listens closely and follows what matters most to the individual, helping people feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions; it uses practical tasks to test and change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy encourages simple awareness exercises to help reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Christina will talk with each person about their goals, what has or hasn’t worked before, and how they prefer to work. Together they shape sessions so exercises and conversations fit the person’s needs and pace.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or choosing audio-only contact when video feels too demanding. It also means people can meet from different locations without travelling. The counsellor and client will agree practical arrangements that suit day-to-day routines and energy levels.
