About Christina

Christina Griffin is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She uses a warm, non-judgemental style to help people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in mood, or struggling with self-esteem. Christina aims to make the first step easier by offering straightforward support and steady presence in sessions.

She helps people talk about relationship strain, grief and loss, and motivation problems. Eating and food-related issues and body image concerns are included among the topics she addresses. Christina also works with people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, codependency, and separation or divorce.

Her approach adapts to each person’s needs rather than following one fixed method. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to focus on practical ways to change thought patterns and build supportive self-talk. Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas also shape how she listens and reflects on recurring feelings and past influences.

Sessions aim to be a calm place to sort through feelings, notice unhelpful habits, and try small changes that fit real life. Christina emphasises collaboration - she and the client set goals and review progress together. This straightforward approach helps people move from feeling stuck to making manageable steps forward.

If you are considering therapy, Christina asks you to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to her availability. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How Christina adapts therapy online using established approaches

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the client’s lead; it helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and supports small practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina will discuss different ways of working and together you will decide what feels most helpful. That collaborative process means approaches can be mixed or adjusted as goals shift over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and offering more flexible scheduling. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, which some people prefer. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to help people maintain continuity of care and to try practical strategies between sessions.
