About Georgios

Georgios Bligouras is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, depression and relationship difficulties. He also helps with trauma, grief, addiction concerns and codependency. Georgios works in a straightforward, respectful way and speaks English and Greek.

Georgios trained as a BACP counsellor, which means he is associated with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He brings five years of practice experience and draws on his own experience of therapy to shape how he meets people in session.

His approach is person‑centred, so sessions focus on listening and helping people find their own direction. He also uses emotionally‑focused methods to look at patterns in close relationships, and trauma‑focused ideas when past events keep causing distress. Sessions aim to be practical and understandable, not full of jargon.

People can expect a calm, accepting atmosphere where they can talk through painful or confusing issues. Georgios helps people notice repeated patterns and try small, manageable changes in how they relate to others and themselves.

He works with a broad range of life concerns including career strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related difficulties, intimacy and communication problems. Georgios encourages people to take steady steps towards clearer choices and greater self‑acceptance.

How his approaches translate to online work

Georgios blends person‑centred listening with emotionally‑focused and trauma‑informed methods. Person‑centred work means the counsellor offers attentive listening and helps clients steer sessions towards what matters to them; this is useful for low mood, self‑esteem and difficult life choices. Emotionally‑focused ideas pay attention to patterns in close relationships and the feelings that sit behind them, which can help with intimacy and attachment difficulties. Trauma‑focused approaches gently address how past events affect daily life and coping, offering ways to reduce reactivity and build new responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Georgios will discuss options with each client and together they will choose methods that match the person’s goals, needs and preferences. This collaborative process means the shape of therapy can change over time as new priorities emerge.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions more easily into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can also make it simpler to check in during a lunch break, use audio‑only when bandwidth is low, or have shorter catch‑ups when that suits the day. Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking so you know what to expect.
