About Jorge
Jorge Damasceno is a counsellor who helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. He offers calm, straightforward support for those facing relationship strain, life changes, or career uncertainty. Jorge works in English and Portuguese and practices from the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience and a BACP credential.
He keeps sessions focused and practical. Conversations aim to identify the problems that matter most, set small goals, and try out changes that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Jorge adapts his style so sessions feel relevant and doable rather than abstract or overly clinical. Jorge draws on a few different approaches to match each person’s needs. He uses client-centred methods to build understanding, cognitive behavioural ideas to spot and shift unhelpful thinking, and existential ideas to talk about life purpose and meaning.
He combines these with motivational interviewing to boost readiness for change and psychodynamic thinking to look at longer-term patterns when helpful. People can expect a collaborative process where the counsellor and client decide together what to try next. Sessions may include practical exercises, gentle challenges to stuck thinking, and time to reflect on values and choices.
This mix aims to support coping, improve mood, and help people move forward. Jorge offers therapy online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and teaches practical skills to change them. In remote sessions this often includes simple exercises, thought records and behavioural experiments that clients try between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jorge will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. That way the therapy stays collaborative and can be adjusted if something is not helpful.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low or for shorter check-ins, and live chat or text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options aim to make regular contact more practical and consistent while keeping the focus on progress and what the client wants to achieve.
