Holly Griffiths
Person-focused therapist combining practical and reflective work
About Holly
Holly Griffiths is a psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. Holly works from a person-focused perspective and aims to meet people where they are. They approach sessions with compassion and respect and tailor the way they work to each person's needs.
Holly supports people with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, eating and addiction issues, and problems connected to sexuality and gender.
Background and approach
Additional focus areas include body image, chronic illness and pain, panic attacks, impulse difficulties, and young adult issues. Holly also offers support around parenting strains, relationship difficulties, grief and recovery from trauma and abuse. In practice Holly draws on client-centred methods alongside cognitive behavioural and mindfulness techniques to help people spot unhelpful patterns and build practical coping skills.
They may also use psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences influence present feelings and behaviour. Sessions are adapted to what each person finds useful rather than following a fixed formula. Holly holds BACP registration, meaning they are listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
They work with people from different backgrounds and accept international clients who can meet by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Holly believes reaching out takes courage and sees therapy as a collaborative process. People who want to plan changes, manage difficult feelings, or find steadier ways to cope often find the practical, down-to-earth approach helpful.

Therapeutic approaches for online support
Holly commonly blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness in online sessions. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, understanding and helping people feel heard so they can identify what matters to them and set their own goals. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at thinking and behaviour patterns and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful routines. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce stress and help manage strong emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Holly explores what a person wants to change, their goals, and how they prefer to work. They then suggest ways of combining approaches so therapy feels relevant and manageable. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video helps recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option for a check-in, live chat suits shorter focused exchanges, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible for people balancing work, study or caregiving.
