About Geanina
Geanina uses a blend of approaches to suit each person. She draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at longstanding patterns that began in the past. She also works with psychosynthesis, which focuses on personal growth and recognising inner potential rather than only reducing symptoms.
Mindfulness and somatic techniques are part of her practice when they fit the client's needs. These tools are used to help people notice how thoughts and body sensations link together and to build day-to-day coping skills. Creative methods may also be introduced for people who find talking alone is not enough.
She has three years of professional experience and holds BACP registration, listed as BACP. Geanina works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, eating and food-related concerns, family of origin problems, immigration issues and more.
Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom. People who are considering therapy are encouraged to use the site's Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How her approaches translate to online work
Geanina uses Client-Centred and Psychodynamic ideas in her practice. Client-Centred work focuses on offering an accepting, listening presence so people can talk through what matters most to them and arrive at their own insights. Psychodynamic approaches look at repeated patterns and early experiences to understand why some reactions keep happening and to make different choices going forward.She also draws on mindfulness in sessions to help people notice thoughts, feelings and body sensations in the moment. This can be useful for stress, anxiety and coping with life changes by building simple practices that can be used between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to find what fits best, adapting methods as goals and preferences become clearer. That means techniques may shift over time as understanding deepens.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit more easily into busy lives, requires less travel and can make regular check-ins simpler to maintain. It can also allow shorter or more flexible session times when that suits day-to-day schedules.
