About Debbie

Debbie Griffin is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with twelve years of experience. She holds NCPS accreditation and focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career concerns and parenting challenges. She aims to make starting therapy a simple step for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

She encourages a conversational, non-judgemental atmosphere where clients can talk through difficult feelings. Sessions are straightforward and down to earth.

Background and approach

The goal is to help people notice small changes that make daily life easier. Debbie uses client-centred therapy to follow each person's priorities. That means listening closely and working at the client's pace to build trust and clarity.

She helps people reflect on choices, spot unhelpful patterns and find workable solutions. Her practice also covers grief, trauma and relationship concerns, along with issues such as addictions, anger and eating difficulties. She offers coaching-style support for motivation and career direction when clients want practical steps alongside conversation.

Work can focus on parenting stresses and on building self-compassion and confidence. Sessions are aimed at helping people feel steadier, think more clearly and manage the day-to-day pressures that weigh them down.

Online support

How client-centred therapy translates online

Client-centred therapy focuses on the client's experience and priorities. The counsellor provides empathic listening and reflection, helping people to name feelings and make their own choices. This approach can be useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship worries and parenting stress.

The process is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to decide what methods suit their goals and preferences. If a different emphasis or technique seems helpful, this is discussed together so the plan matches what the client wants.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit into busy lives. Video calls let people see facial cues and body language. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier on a quiet break or commute. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflection and flexible timing across the week.

These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare and other commitments. The therapist and client can choose formats that suit the topic of a session and the practical realities of each week.
