About Christina
Christina Griffin is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief and low motivation. Christina aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.
She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters to them. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps a person can try between meetings. Christina listens carefully and helps people find clearer ways to understand their feelings and choices.
Her work covers a range of concerns beyond the headline issues, including attachment and abandonment worries, codependency, communication and commitment difficulties, and challenges linked to chronic illness or caregiving. She also supports people facing body image struggles, eating and food-related issues, or the fallout from separation and domestic violence.
Christina draws on a mix of approaches that suit different needs. She blends client-centred listening with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and psychodynamic thinking, alongside mindfulness and existential ideas. This mix helps clients address patterns of thought, past influences and present-day choices.
Clients can expect a practical, down-to-earth style. Christina works at a steady pace and adapts the sessions to each person. She encourages small experiments and clearer communication so that change can start between sessions.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful, non-judgemental listening. The counsellor follows the client's pace and helps the person explore what matters most. This approach works well for people who need space to sort out feelings and build confidence.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. It usually involves setting small, practical tasks to try between sessions and noticing what changes. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress and low mood.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and adapt methods from different approaches. Decisions about focus and techniques are made collaboratively rather than imposed.
Confirm the current online session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people join sessions from a quieter place or use audio-only options when camera time is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor session length and homework to fit everyday life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
