Päivi Griffiths, BACP

Päivi Griffiths is a registered psychotherapeutic counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, confidence concerns and relationship difficulties. She works from a client-centered perspective, offering a respectful, non-judgmental presence that prioritises each person’s own expertise about their life and experiences. BACP membership indicates she is affiliated with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a recognised professional body in the UK that reflects training and ethical standards.

Päivi believes that making the decision to seek change often takes courage, and she focuses on helping clients recognise and build on their strengths as part of that journey. Her approach emphasises warm, attentive listening and unconditional positive regard so that clients can explore feelings around abandonment, attachment, communication problems, grief or identity and develop greater clarity and resilience. She also offers therapy in English, Finnish and Swedish, aiming to create a comfortable space where language and cultural nuances can be acknowledged and respected.

Throughout her practice, Päivi seeks to collaborate with each person to identify goals and practical steps forward, supporting clients as they work toward more fulfilling relationships, improved self-worth and better emotional balance.
