About George
Dr. George Baldwin is an HCPC-registered clinical psychologist who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties and addiction. He also supports those coping with life changes, sleep problems, parenting strain, low self-esteem, bipolar difficulties and compassion fatigue.
Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward. He works collaboratively to identify what matters most to each person. George trained at the University of East Anglia and holds a Clinical Psychology doctorate.
Background and approach
He has six years of experience in NHS and personal settings, and has published peer-reviewed research. His background includes work in community mental health, psychiatric inpatient wards, physical health clinics and specialist fostering services. In assessment he gathers key information, then builds a visual formulation together with the client.
This formulation outlines patterns in thoughts, feelings, behaviours and relationships and guides what to focus on in therapy. Sessions are usually 45 minutes long and proceed at a pace the client is comfortable with. Treatment commonly involves practising different ways of thinking and behaving between sessions, and checking progress against the agreed formulation.
George adapts methods for people with neurodiverse profiles, including autism spectrum conditions, ADHD and dyslexia. He also provides clinical supervision to other psychological professionals. International clients may be supported and sessions are arranged through a matching and scheduling process on the site.

How George works online
He also draws on Systemic therapy to map how relationships and roles affect difficulties. This approach helps when patterns within couples, families or other relationships maintain stress or conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and agree a plan based on the client's goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and the approach can be adjusted over time as progress is reviewed.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as specific options are set by the therapist. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need quieter surroundings, as different formats can match different practical needs.
