Debbie Griffin, NCPS

Debbie Griffin is a counsellor with NCPS and 12 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and career challenges. She aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and supportive.

Her style is warm and non-judgemental. She creates space for people to say what they really think and feel. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to each person and on practical ways to move forward.

Debbie uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person's goals in focus. That means conversations are guided by the client rather than a rigid agenda. It suits people who want to explore feelings, make decisions, or regain motivation.

She has worked with issues such as relationship struggles, grief, addiction concerns, parenting strain and compassion fatigue. Other areas she addresses include eating concerns, intimacy-related difficulties, ADHD and emotional impacts from trauma and abuse.

People can expect straightforward conversation and gentle challenge when needed. Debbie supports exploring how past experiences affect present choices. She also works on building coping skills for daily life and improving communication in close relationships.

How client-centred therapy adapts to online work

Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their goals at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and offers support that follows the client's lead. This approach can help with anxiety, stress, confidence and relationship concerns by creating space to understand feelings and decide on next steps.

Working together to find the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about what they want to achieve and adjust methods to fit those aims. This is a collaborative search for what feels most helpful rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

If you are considering online therapy, check the session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Discussing practical matters like session length, frequency and whether brief phone check-ins or video meetings suit your routine can make therapy easier to fit into everyday life. Online work can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a busy day and make it simpler to arrange sessions around work or caregiving commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can then focus on supporting progress while you balance therapy with daily responsibilities.
