About Debbie

Debbie Griffin is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has 12 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. She also supports those coping with career problems, life changes, addictions and anger.

She keeps sessions straightforward and person-focused. Conversations centre on the client’s concerns, not technical labels. She listens to how problems show up day to day and works with clients to try out realistic ways to respond differently.

Debbie uses Client-Centred Therapy to guide her practice. That means she prioritises what each person brings to the room and adapts her responses to the individual's needs. Sessions often involve talking through recent situations, noticing patterns, and testing small changes between meetings.

People come to her with a wide range of concerns, from grief and trauma to intimacy-related issues and ADHD-related struggles. She also addresses practical problems such as workplace frustration, parenting strain and communication breakdowns. There is attention to both emotional experience and everyday behaviour.

Her approach is steady and practical. She helps people sort priorities, set achievable steps and reflect on what works. The aim is better day-to-day coping, clearer thinking about choices, and calmer ways of handling conflicts and strong feelings.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy puts the client's experience at the centre of work. The therapist listens closely to what the person says and reflects it back to help them understand their feelings. This approach suits issues like stress, anxiety, relationship conflict and anger where talking and being heard are a key part of change.

The therapist aims to work collaboratively when deciding methods. She will talk with clients about goals and preferences, then try approaches that fit those aims. That process includes reviewing what feels helpful and changing direction if something does not work well.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people continue support while living in a different country, since international clients are accepted. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt how sessions run to suit quieter times, lower-bandwidth options, or brief workplace check-ins depending on the client’s practical needs.
