About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Fenney is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Geoffrey believes people bring strengths they can use to move through hard times, and he encourages that resilience from the first conversation.
In sessions he treats the person as the expert on their own life and builds on what already works.
Background and approach
He tends to listen carefully, reflect back what he hears, and help people find small steps forward. Conversations focus on practical ways to manage symptoms and cope with day-to-day challenges. Geoffrey draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
He also uses client-centred ways of working to keep the person’s priorities at the centre. Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing are used when they fit the person’s goals. People come to him for help with relationship wounds, feelings of abandonment, body image and issues around recovery from addiction.
He also supports those coping with chronic illness, cancer, fatherhood concerns, and the practical strain of separation or blended family life. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged online through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Geoffrey emphasises a calm, respectful approach and aims to make the first steps into therapy as straightforward as possible.
How Geoffrey’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current feelings and behaviour. In online sessions this can help people understand patterns of closeness, fear of abandonment and trust issues, and guide changes in how they relate to others.Client-centred therapy focuses on the client’s aims and experience. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client’s priorities, helping them to make sense of feelings and decide what to try next. Mindfulness techniques teach simple practices to notice thoughts and ease anxious moments, useful for immediate coping between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Geoffrey will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they adapt methods over time, mixing approaches as needed rather than sticking to one fixed plan.
Online work offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls provide face-to-face interaction when needed, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or screen time is limited, and live chat or text messaging suits quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family or health demands while keeping continuity of care with a registered professional.
