How Geoff works
That means he can help with practical coping strategies as well as looking at how early relationships and life events influence current feelings and behaviour. He has particular experience with stress, anxiety, depression and addiction concerns. People consult him for relationship strain, grief, problems with self-esteem and anger, and for help adjusting to life changes or career uncertainty.
He also supports those dealing with chronic illness, cancer, caregiver stress and body image worries. Geoff lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, codependency and communication problems. Sessions are tailored to the individual and the plan will reflect the issue being worked on.
Geoff aims to be respectful and non-judgemental while helping people set realistic goals. Therapy can include practical exercises, reflective conversation and straightforward coping tools. Geoff’s background includes a first class degree in counselling that covered humanistic, psychodynamic and CBT perspectives.
He began practising with people affected by addiction and has since worked in independent practice. His membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy is recorded as BACP.

Online support options
How Geoff's approaches translate to online therapy
Geoff commonly works with Client-Centred therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas. Client-Centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions; it can be useful for building confidence and addressing self-esteem and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy targets thoughts and behaviours with practical exercises and coping strategies, which helps with anxiety, depression and stress. Psychodynamic ideas look at how early experiences and attachment patterns influence current feelings and relationships, offering a way to understand recurring problems.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Geoff will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. He adapts the work as progress is made and checks in about what is helpful and what might need to change.
Online therapy with him can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and messaging suits people who prefer to write or who want flexible, ongoing contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical support and understanding.
