About Holly

Holly Griffiths is a psychotherapist working in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. Holly divides time between a private practice and running counselling departments in schools. They support people facing stress, anxiety and related concerns, and approach each person as an individual rather than a diagnosis.

Holly uses a tailored way of working that adapts to what each person needs. Sessions focus on practical steps and on talking things through. Holly aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where people can take the first steps towards change.

In practice, Holly blends different therapeutic ideas to match each situation. Cognitive behavioural techniques can help with unhelpful thoughts and panic symptoms. Client-centred elements keep the person’s priorities central. Mindfulness work supports learning how to respond to strong feelings with more calm.

Holly also brings experience supporting people with eating and body-image issues, self-harm, addictions and grief. There is additional focus on LGBT matters, gender dysphoria, ADHD and sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink. These topics are raised and explored at the client’s pace.

People who choose Holly can expect straightforward conversation, practical strategies and steady support. The aim is to help people build skills they can use outside sessions and to find ways to cope with day-to-day pressures. If you are unsure whether this is a fit, Holly will work with you to clarify goals and next steps.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-centred therapy keeps the person’s experience at the heart of every session. It involves active listening, reflecting what matters to you and shaping sessions around your priorities, which helps when deciding what to work on first.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and acting. This can be useful for panic symptoms, anxiety and low mood because it gives practical steps to try between sessions.

Mindfulness therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and sensations without immediately reacting. These simple practices can reduce reactivity to anxiety and help build steadier coping skills over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, try methods that match those goals and adjust the plan as you go. That collaborative process helps make sure the strategies fit your needs and preferences.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and making it easier to access a registered or accredited professional from different locations. Online work can reduce travel time and make short check-ins or regular weekly sessions easier to schedule. Please confirm the exact session formats available before booking so you know how appointments will be arranged.
