About Oskars

Oskars Grins is a counsellor who helps people navigate grief, end-of-life and hospice concerns, and a wide range of life changes. He works with issues such as depression, relationship problems, addictions, self-esteem, and the stresses of caregiving. He listens closely and offers a calm space to talk about what matters most to you.

He practises person-centred, or client-centred, therapy. That means he focuses on deep, empathic listening and giving non-judgemental acceptance. Sessions are about you being heard and understood, not about rapid symptom-fixing or labels.

Oskars also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people look at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect feelings and behaviour. He uses these approaches to support people coping with bereavement, chronic illness, career shifts, and intimacy-related issues.

He has six years of clinical experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is shown as BACP in his credentials.

People come to him when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. In sessions he will listen to your story, reflect what he hears, and work with you to identify what matters most and how you might take the next steps.

How his approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the work and focuses on empathic listening, acceptance and genuineness. It helps when someone needs to be heard and to reconnect with their own values and identity. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and the emotions that drive those patterns. It is useful for people wanting to change how they respond to attachment and intimacy issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with you to identify goals and preferences. That collaboration guides which methods are used and how sessions are shaped over time.

The profile does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into busy lives, such as reducing travel time or allowing sessions during a lunch break. It can also offer a quieter setting for focused conversation or allow a shorter phone check-in when energy is low. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt the pace and focus of sessions to suit practical needs and goals.
