About Holly

Holly Griffiths is a psychotherapist registered with the BACP and has six years' clinical experience in the United Kingdom. Holly divides time between private practice and running counselling departments within schools. They focus on issues like stress, anxiety, depression, eating and self-harm, and work with people facing ADHD, relationship strain, grief and the specific pressures of young adulthood.

Holly uses a mix of talking therapies to suit how a person prefers to work. They draw on Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the person’s perspective and build a working relationship. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used for practical tools around mood, anxiety and panic. Mindfulness approaches can help with grounding and noticing unhelpful patterns.

Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational. Holly pays attention to how daily life, body image, sexuality and sexual subcultures intersect with mental health. They also support people dealing with chronic pain, illness or disability and those facing issues around gender dysphoria and LGBT concerns.

Holly works with people on eating and food-related difficulties, process addictions and impulsivity. They also address feelings of isolation, shame, and the practical stresses of starting work or leaving education. The work can involve short-term practical strategies or longer conversations about beliefs and past experiences.

If someone is new to counselling, Holly asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session to talk through priorities and practical goals. International clients may be accepted and sessions are conducted in English.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Holly combines Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to structure online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening carefully to the person and building a collaborative relationship, helping people talk through what matters most to them. CBT gives clear, practical steps to change patterns that keep anxiety, panic or low mood active, such as thought records or behavioural experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Holly will discuss goals and preferences in the first sessions and suggest ways of working that fit the client. The therapist and client choose whether to focus on practical skills, longer-form reflection, or a mix of both as treatment progresses.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into study, work or caring commitments and avoiding travel time. If you need details about session types and how they run, confirm the current options before booking. This makes it easier to plan sessions around classes, shifts or other daily routines while staying focused on the issues you brought to therapy.
