About Christina

Christina Griffin is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She holds NCPS as her listed credential and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns. Her approach aims to make first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

Christina creates a calm space where people can talk about difficult feelings. She encourages honest conversation about grief, confidence, motivation and self-esteem. Sessions are intended to be non-judgemental and straightforward, with the client’s pace respected.

In practice she draws on a mix of talking and practical strategies. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps break down unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills. Client-centred methods prioritise the person’s own experience and choices in therapy.

She also uses elements of mindfulness to support present-moment awareness and reduce rumination. Psychodynamic and existential ideas can help when people want to understand patterns from their past or consider life meaning and direction.

Christina often works with people navigating relationship strain, body image worries, caregiver stress and chronic health challenges. She supports those facing separation, domestic violence effects, and eating or food-related concerns. Her style is gentle, clear and collaborative, aiming to help people make steady, practical changes.

How Christina’s approaches translate to online support

Christina uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy as key parts of her work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying small behavioural changes to test new ways of coping. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises the person’s experience, with the counsellor offering empathy and space to make choices.

She may also draw on mindfulness to help people notice thoughts without getting swept up by them, and psychodynamic or existential ideas when someone wants to look at life patterns or meaning. These approaches are described in everyday terms so people know what to expect rather than technical labels.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adapt sessions as needed. The first few meetings are often used to try methods and agree what feels most useful going forward.

Session formats supported by this profile are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around home, work or medical appointments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote sessions help maintain continuity of care while people manage busy lives.
