About Cindy
Dr. Cindy George uses a person-centred approach that helps people feel heard and respected. She focuses on practical steps people can take to reduce stress, manage mood problems, and improve relationships.
With a warm and direct style she aims to make sessions straightforward and useful from the first meeting. Dr George has 25 years of experience in counselling and mental health. She holds a PhD in Counselling, a Masters in Counselling, and a Bachelors in Psychology, and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Background and approach
This background informs a flexible way of working that draws on different therapeutic ideas rather than a single method. In sessions she uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and small behaviour changes that make daily life easier.
She also draws on Client-Centred ideas to create a respectful atmosphere and Narrative and Existential approaches to help people make sense of their life story and values. Practical coping skills and short-term goals are common features of her work.
Typical concerns addressed include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, eating and body image issues, intimacy and relationship difficulties, parenting and blended family matters, and career or life-purpose questions. She also supports people facing midlife transitions, panic attacks, mood disorders and challenges with self-esteem. Sessions are offered in English and Dr George accepts international clients.
Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How Cindy works online
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to pick or blend methods that match a person's goals, needs and preferences. Early conversations focus on what the person hopes to achieve and which techniques feel most helpful for them.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins or to review written exercises together. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking to understand how sessions will be scheduled. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote work to keep therapy accessible while tailoring the approach to each person's circumstances.
