About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Norton is a UK-qualified counsellor with a Postgraduate Diploma and a Master of Arts. He has three years of experience supporting people who face stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. He brings a human-centred, relational approach to sessions and aims to build a genuine connection from the first meetings.
Geoffrey works mainly in a person-centred way, listening without judgement and helping people name their thoughts and feelings. He also draws on existential ideas that ask what matters most to a person, and solution-focused steps that look for small practical changes.
Background and approach
These strands combine to keep sessions grounded and practical. He says his life experience living in the UK, Spain, the USA and Colombia informs his practice. Before training in psychotherapy he worked in a range of jobs, which he believes helps him relate to different kinds of pressure and life change.
That background feeds into conversations about work, purpose and transitions. Sessions tend to be conversational and relational. Geoffrey aims to create a space where difficult topics - trauma, grief, intimacy, parenting or anger - can be talked through at a steady pace.
He supports people exploring attachment, dissociation, shame and feelings of emptiness as well as concerns such as panic, jealousy and seasonal low mood. People who prefer an empathic listener and a therapist who blends reflection with practical steps may find his style helpful. Geoffrey offers counselling in English and is available to work with international clients.
If you want to try a first session, the usual next step is to start an online matching process and book a time that suits you.

The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that helps. Some people also find online meetings allow easier scheduling across time zones when working with international clients. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt conversational, existential and solution-focused work to online settings, helping you keep therapy part of your routine without promising a particular format.
