How Georgios’ approaches work online
Georgios commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy to help people understand how early relationships shape current ways of relating. This approach focuses on creating a steady therapeutic relationship so people can explore trust, closeness and patterns that cause pain.He also uses Client-Centred Therapy which places the person’s experience at the centre of the work. The therapist listens without judgement and helps clients find their own way forward through supportive, non-directive conversation.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Georgios will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as the work progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls let people meet face to face when desired, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work from different locations.
