Geoff Warriner
Helping people understand past patterns and build coping skills
About Geoff
Geoff Warriner uses an integrative approach that draws on attachment, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural ideas. He aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what feels hard and find practical ways to feel steadier. Geoff holds a BACP credential from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and works from the United Kingdom.
Geoff listens for how early relationships and past experiences shape current patterns. That helps when people struggle with abandonment, attachment issues or repeated relationship problems.
Background and approach
He also offers straightforward strategies from cognitive behavioural therapy to manage anxiety, stress and low mood. He has a background supporting people with addiction and paraphiliac issues and has worked with clients on grief, chronic illness, caregiver stress and body image. Geoff draws on different approaches depending on what a person needs in the moment, mixing longer-term exploration with short-term coping tools.
Sessions are collaborative and tailored. Geoff aims to balance understanding how past events influence feelings with practical steps for day-to-day life. He stresses respect, sensitivity and empathy in every conversation.
With three years of professional experience, Geoff pairs university training with additional work in trauma, depression and addiction. He uses that experience to adapt his approach to each person’s concerns and goals.

How Geoff’s Approaches Work Online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. Online sessions let people talk through relationship themes and attachment wounds while noticing how they relate in the moment. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre and relies on empathetic listening to help people find their own answers; this can suit people wanting space to reflect and be heard. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and introduces practical experiments and tools to reduce anxiety or low mood.Finding the right mix is part of the process. Geoff will work collaboratively to decide which approach fits best for the issue, goals and personal style. That may mean focusing on practical CBT techniques for a time, then moving to deeper attachment or psychodynamic work as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat options suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and travel.
