About Christina
Christina Griffin is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, low self-esteem and low mood. Sessions focus on practical ways to talk through what feels overwhelming and to notice small changes over time.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She uses client-centred methods that encourage people to lead the conversation, along with cognitive behavioural techniques to look at unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Mindfulness is used to help people notice their feelings and respond differently in difficult moments.
Christina also draws on psychodynamic and existential ideas when they help make sense of repeated relationship patterns and questions about meaning. She explains things plainly and offers moments to reflect rather than giving long lectures. Clients are invited to try short exercises in-session and between meetings to practice new ways of responding.
She pays attention to common concerns such as abandonment, attachment struggles, body image and caregiver stress. Other areas she works with include chronic illness and pain, eating and food-related issues, codependency, communication problems and managing life changes like separation or divorce.
Sessions are conducted in English and Christina does not work with international clients. If someone is unsure about what to expect, she asks people to start with a short questionnaire and a first meeting to agree on goals and the best way to proceed.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and letting the person guide what matters most. In online sessions this means the counsellor reflects what is said and checks understanding so people feel heard and can set their own goals.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour that sustain distress. Online work can include short practical exercises and homework to test different ways of thinking between sessions, helping with anxiety and low mood.
Mindfulness practice teaches noticing thoughts and sensations with less reactivity. In a remote setting Christina can guide simple breathing and attention exercises to use when stress or social anxiety feels intense.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and will suggest ways to combine methods. This is a collaborative process and the plan can shift as progress or new issues arise.
Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use audio only if they prefer not to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote work helps maintain continuity while people balance life commitments.
