About Christina
Christina Griffin is an NCPS-credentialed counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. Her practice focuses on helping clients talk through what’s on their mind and find clearer ways forward.
Christina keeps sessions straightforward. She listens to what matters most and helps clients notice the thoughts and patterns that keep them stuck. Conversations often look at how past experiences shape current reactions, and at practical steps to manage mood and worry day to day.
Her work draws on several approaches, including client-centred conversation, cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic ideas. That mix is used to help people understand feelings, test out different ways of thinking, and try new behaviours between sessions.
She also uses mindfulness practices to slow things down and rebuild attention in stressful times. Existential themes come up when people want to talk about meaning, choices, or values. These threads are woven into regular sessions rather than taught as separate modules.
Christina often helps with concerns tied to attachment and abandonment, blended family stress, caregiver burden, body image and eating-related problems. She also supports people facing chronic illness, codependency, communication problems, and the aftermath of separation. Practical coping skills are combined with longer conversations about personal history and current patterns.
How her approaches translate to online work
Christina commonly uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for anyone who needs a patient space to talk through difficult feelings without being led by the therapist. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is also part of her practice. CBT breaks down unhelpful thoughts and tests different behaviours to reduce anxiety and low mood over time. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice recurring patterns that come from earlier relationships and life events, which can help explain why some reactions feel automatic.Choosing the right mix of approaches is treated as a collaborative process. Christina will check what feels most useful, talk about goals, and adapt methods as the work progresses. This means sessions can shift between practical skill-building and deeper reflective conversation depending on what the client needs.
The original profile did not specify session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time so clients use their time differently. The focus is on making therapy workable around everyday life rather than promising a particular outcome.
