About George
George Prior is a person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom. He uses a warm, accepting way of working that focuses on what matters to the individual. He aims to make sessions feel straightforward and humane for someone already feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start.
George has four years of practical experience supporting people through anxiety, depression and a wide range of life stresses. He helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, grief and loss, and issues around identity such as LGBT matters and gender dysphoria.
Background and approach
He also works with people facing addiction, career strain, caregiver stress and burnout-like compassion fatigue. In sessions he listens carefully and reflects what he hears. That helps clients notice patterns and make small changes that feel doable.
He keeps the pace gentle and follows the client’s priorities rather than imposing a strict agenda. George blends person-centred listening with narrative and solution-focused tools. Narrative techniques help people separate from problem stories, and solution-focused ideas make goals clearer and more practical.
Together these approaches aim to build self-awareness and useful steps forward. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works remotely across the UK. Starting therapy begins with a short questionnaire and a scheduling step so people can book sessions that fit their life.
Person-centred and practical approaches in online therapy
George uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor offers an accepting space where the client's concerns guide the pace and topics of sessions, which can help when anxiety or low mood makes decision-making hard.Narrative Therapy is used to help people separate themselves from the stories that keep them stuck. By looking at how problems are described, clients can begin to see new possibilities and change unhelpful patterns.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and clear goals. This approach suits people who want practical ways to move forward from stress, relationship strain or periods of feeling stuck.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. George will discuss options and help decide which methods fit the client's needs, goals and preferences. The clinician and client collaborate to adjust the way they work as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier on the move, while chat and messaging offer shorter check-ins or a way to reflect in writing. These formats aim to increase flexibility and make it easier to maintain regular contact with a therapist.
