About Geoff

Geoff Warriner is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain and issues around self-esteem. He works with clients who are coping with life changes, grief, depression, anger and career challenges. Geoff uses a calm, non-judgemental style to make it easier to talk about difficult subjects.

He blends several therapeutic approaches to suit each person’s needs. That mix includes Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), along with existential and psychodynamic ideas. Geoff adapts conversations and practical strategies to what an individual brings to sessions.

Geoff holds a first class degree in Counselling and is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He began his career supporting people and families affected by addiction and later moved into private practice. His background includes work with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction and paraphilia.

Sessions are built around the client’s goals. Some people come for short-term coping strategies, and others explore deeper, longer-term patterns. Geoff aims to balance practical steps with space to look at early life experiences that still affect everyday choices.

He offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. If you prefer a straightforward, respectful approach that adapts to your situation, he can help you talk things through and plan next steps.

How Geoff’s approaches translate to online counselling

Geoff uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns of closeness and trust, which can help with relationship problems and core fears. He also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, offering a supportive, non-judgemental space where the conversation follows the client’s needs and pace. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) features practical steps to manage symptoms like anxiety and unhelpful thinking, using simple exercises and goal setting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Geoff will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means plans can change as needs shift over time.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow regular check-ins across different time zones. It also lets people choose quieter moments for brief updates or longer sessions when more reflection is needed. Registered or accredited professionals like Geoff can adapt techniques used in face-to-face work for remote conversations, combining practical tools and explorative dialogue to suit daily life and schedules.
