About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Norton is a UK-based counsellor with three years' practice working mainly with stress, anxiety and depression. He holds postgraduate qualifications (PGdip/MA) and brings life experience from living in Spain, the USA and Colombia to his work. Geoffrey uses a person-centred stance and aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk.
He focuses on listening to thoughts and feelings and helping clients make sense of them. Sessions are conversational and paced to each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Geoffrey places value on the relationship between counsellor and client as the starting point for change. His background is drawn from humanistic and integrative influences, yet he keeps the room simple and practical. He helps people address issues such as low self-esteem, relationship pain, grief, anger and coping with life changes.
He also works with trauma-related concerns and some personality and attachment difficulties. Geoffrey uses ideas from existential and solution-focused approaches alongside his person-centred base. That allows him to support both immediate problems and deeper questions about meaning and purpose.
Clients can expect a collaborative style that balances short-term goals with talking through longer patterns. He offers sessions in English and is based in the United Kingdom. Geoffrey accepts international clients and is comfortable using a range of formats for online work when that suits a client's circumstances.

Online support
Existential Therapy helps people consider meaning, freedom and responsibility in their lives. It is useful when someone is struggling with life purpose, emptiness or major transitions and can be discussed effectively over video or phone where reflective conversation is the focus.
Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, practical steps and what already works for a person. It suits people who want goal-directed sessions and short-term progress, and it adapts well to brief check-ins by chat or text as well as longer video sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which combination of ideas best fits a client's needs, goals and preferences, and this can change over time as progress is made.
Online work offers practical benefits: video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are convenient when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins and text-based messaging can suit people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on the therapeutic relationship and agreed goals.
