About Georgios
He draws on several practical methods to suit each person’s needs rather than one fixed technique. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, building coping skills and strengthening communication. The goal is clearer self-awareness and more confidence when facing change.
Georgios has six years of experience working with stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict and grief. He also has experience supporting first responders and emergency medical dispatchers through work-related strain. He supports people dealing with career shifts, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem and intimacy-related concerns.
In the therapy room he will ask about what matters to you and tailor conversations to your priorities. Together you can identify strengths, notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Sessions often include practical steps to manage anxiety and improve daily routines.
Georgios is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He works from the United Kingdom and offers services in English. To begin he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How his approaches translate to online counselling
Georgios works from a humanistic, client-centred base where the relationship matters most. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with empathy, reflecting feelings and helping people find their own solutions; it is useful for midlife uncertainty, self-esteem and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers practical exercises and straightforward tools to manage anxiety, change unhelpful habits and improve sleep and mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Georgios will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working together. He treats this as a collaborative process and adapts plans as needs change.
If you are considering online work, confirm the session formats before booking as current options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed and reduce travel time. They also make it possible to work with a therapist while living outside the UK, depending on arrangements agreed at intake.
