About Holly

Holly Griffiths helps people with stress, anxiety, eating and body-image issues, addiction-related behaviours, low self-esteem and relationship concerns using a mix of talking therapies and practical techniques. Holly works with concerns including trauma, grief, sexuality and gender dysphoria, and offers support for parenting challenges and life changes. Holly is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years' experience in the field.

Holly divides time between a private practice and leading counselling departments in schools. This gives experience with a wide range of everyday problems and working with people at different life stages. Sessions focus on what a person brings to the room and the problems they want to address, rather than labels or diagnoses.

Holly draws on Client-Centred Therapy to make sessions collaborative and person-focused. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used for patterns of thinking and behaviour that cause distress. Mindfulness exercises are offered to help with rumination and stress, and psychodynamic ideas can help understand long-term patterns.

In sessions Holly offers practical tools and space to talk through difficult feelings. Expectations, goals and the way of working are discussed early on so people know what to expect. Approaches are explained plainly and adjusted to what each person finds helpful.

Sessions are conducted in English. Holly accepts international clients and works with people who bring issues around kink, alternative sex culture, chronic illness, process addictions, self-harm, and young adult concerns. The fees vary with location and use a cancel-anytime subscription model.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Holly works with Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and helping people lead the pace and content of sessions; this approach supports people who want a collaborative, person-led way of working. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns; it is practical and often used for anxiety, depression and panic. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce rumination and support steadying of mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Holly will discuss goals and preferences in the first sessions and agree which methods to use. That helps make the way of working fit the person’s needs and aims, and keeps the process collaborative rather than prescriptive.

The therapist’s biography does not specify which session formats are offered online, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or study commitments, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on busy days. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require video, which can suit people who prefer a simpler set-up.
