About George
George Coles uses a relational, person-centred approach to help people find more balance and clarity. He holds a BA (Hons) in Contemporary Relational Counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings and life changes.
He supports people with stress and anxiety and with mood difficulties such as depression and postpartum depression. He also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem and confidence, and the stresses that come with becoming a parent.
Background and approach
Conversations often focus on what matters most to the person and on practical steps that feel achievable. George draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. He uses client-centred ways of working to listen and reflect, and employs cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Mindfulness skills and motivational interviewing are used when they suit the person’s goals. With three years of professional practice in the United Kingdom, he has experience supporting people through grief, coping with life changes, chronic illness and pain, and issues around control, guilt and shame. He also works with loneliness, life purpose and men’s issues.
Sessions are held in English. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. The service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How George works online
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. He explores goals and preferences with each person and together they decide which methods to try and how to adapt them over time. This collaborative tailoring helps ensure sessions feel useful and relevant to everyday life.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy routine and reducing travel time, which can make it easier to keep appointments. If you need to check current session options, please confirm them before booking so you know what formats are available. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists generally use online work to offer continuity of care and accessible, consistent support.
