Oskars Grins, BACP

Oskars Grins is a therapist based in the United Kingdom who works from a person-centered perspective to help people understand themselves and the roots of their distress. He holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and brings six years of clinical practice to work with individuals facing grief, relationship challenges, identity questions, addiction, trauma, and a range of life transitions. His practice emphasizes listening deeply and creating the conditions for personal growth through empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuine presence.

He supports clients who are adjusting after cancer treatment, managing health anxiety, navigating LGBTQ+ related issues, or coping with the aftermath of previous therapy that felt unhelpful. Relationship work has included support for open relationships and recovery from infidelity, and he also helps people negotiating career change or public-facing roles. A specialist interest in grief and bereavement has led to work with end-of-life and palliative clients and their families, exploring where the natural process of grieving has become stuck and how counselling can help move it forward.

Rather than focusing on symptom reduction alone, he aims to understand each person as a whole and to foster the self-actualising tendency that can lead to meaningful change. He listens to personal histories and the details that matter, and works collaboratively to define what progress looks like. If someone believes they might work well with him, they are encouraged to reach out to discuss next steps and availability.
