About Christina

Christina Griffin helps people work through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and depression using an open, person-centred style. She holds the NCPS credential and has three years of professional experience working with adults in the United Kingdom.

She uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on what matters to the person in the room, listening to concerns and reflecting them back so the client can compare options and decide what feels right. Christina also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at unhelpful thinking and practical ways to change daily routines and responses.

Her approach includes elements of psychodynamic and existential thinking to help people consider patterns from earlier life and how meaning affects current choices. Mindfulness techniques are offered to support coping with intense feelings and to build short practices that reduce rumination.

Sessions are conversational and structured when needed. Christina works at a pace set by the client and breaks issues into manageable steps. She aims to help people notice small changes that improve day-to-day functioning.

Clients who want a practical focus on thinking and routines, alongside space to reflect on past patterns, may find this combination useful. People who prefer a directive or strictly skills-based approach should check with Christina about how she balances practical tools and reflective work before booking.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's own priorities, using attentive listening and reflection so people can decide what changes to make. It suits issues where understanding feelings and choices matters, such as relationship concerns and self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and introduces practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns; it is often used for anxiety and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina will talk through options and help decide which methods fit the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow conversation-based work, practical CBT tasks and guided mindfulness exercises to be done without rearranging large parts of daily life.
