About Georgios

Georgios Nikolaou is a counsellor who centres the therapeutic relationship in his work. He brings warmth, empathy and a non-judgemental attitude to sessions. Georgios uses a mix of approaches to meet people where they are and to help them feel heard and understood.

He focuses on practical conversation that looks at patterns, strengths and coping strategies. Sessions aim to build clearer communication and greater self-awareness. Georgios supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, career issues and the long-term effects of trauma and abuse.

Background and approach

Georgios also helps with intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem and adjusting to life changes. Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and immigration-related stress. His work combines client-centred listening with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and psychodynamic thinking when they suit the person.

He also draws on solution-focused methods to set concrete goals and small steps forward. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs and pace. Georgios has six years of professional experience and holds BACP registration.

He offers sessions in English and welcomes people from outside the United Kingdom. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session at a time that fits the individual.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening, acceptance and building a strong working relationship. It helps when someone needs a calm space to talk things through and to feel understood rather than judged.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It offers practical steps and simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, sleep issues and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Georgios will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest methods that suit the person's needs. That decision is made together, and approaches can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, while live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer text. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit around work, family and other commitments.
