About Miles

Miles Dorfman is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He has three years of clinical experience and focuses on practical ways to reduce stress and anxiety, improve self-esteem, and address relationship concerns. Miles takes a research-informed approach that treats each person as a whole system.

He works to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to challenge them in straightforward ways. At the same time he looks at everyday routines and habits that can be adjusted to make life feel more manageable.

Background and approach

Sessions tend to combine talking through thoughts and feelings with practical problem-solving. This might mean setting manageable goals, testing out different ways of communicating, or trying simple changes in daily life to boost concentration and motivation. He also offers support around career and work stress, ADHD-related difficulties, and transitions such as midlife reassessment or changing life roles.

The focus is on what can be changed now, step by step, alongside understanding underlying patterns. Miles aims to create a respectful, sensitive space for people to explore worries and make plans. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How Miles works online

Many of the approaches used in evidence-based practice focus on identifying thought patterns and testing new ways of acting. Cognitive-style work looks at thoughts that make anxiety and low mood worse and helps people try alternative, more helpful ideas. Behavioural strategies focus on changing routines and testing small behavioural experiments to build confidence and reduce avoidance.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The counsellor will collaborate with the person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs and daily life. Together they review what works and adjust the plan as priorities evolve.

Practical benefits of online therapy include making sessions easier to fit into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can also support shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, or allow someone to join without needing to be on camera if that helps them focus. Confirm the current session options before booking to know which formats are offered and to arrange sessions that suit everyday commitments.
