Sessions are practical and paced to each person. George encourages small, achievable steps and reviews what is working. He aims to support people who want a more stable emotional life and clearer relationships.

How therapeutic styles work in online counselling
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current needs and reactions; online work can help people notice patterns in their close relationships and try new ways of connecting. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises being listened to without judgement and then building from the client's own priorities; this approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and choices.Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. George will listen to your situation, goals and preferences and discuss which methods might help most. The therapist and client decide together which techniques to try and review progress as they go.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be quicker or fit a break at work, live chat supports shorter check-ins and text messaging works for ongoing, flexible reflection. These options make it easier to fit counselling around daily life and to keep momentum between sessions.
