About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Fenney trained and practised in the United Kingdom and brings three years of clinical experience to his work. He focuses on common but heavy problems like stress, anxiety and depression. Geoffrey also supports people who are coping with trauma, abuse and grief.
He speaks English and works with clients remotely across borders. Geoffrey sees people as the experts in their own lives. He helps them notice strengths they already have and use those to face difficult situations.
Background and approach
Sessions are plainspoken and paced to suit each person. He aims to make the room feel steady and predictable while people test out new ways of coping. His approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and mindfulness practices.
Those methods help untangle patterns in relationships, increase self-awareness and slow overwhelming thoughts. He also uses motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when useful to explore what keeps someone stuck and how to move forward. Geoffrey works with many kinds of concerns beyond the main areas, including issues around abandonment, body image, chronic illness, addiction and fatherhood.
He also supports people dealing with blended family stress, divorce, guilt and forgiveness. He will tailor sessions to the specific problem and life context the person brings. Getting started is straightforward.
Geoffrey invites people to take a first step and complete a brief matching questionnaire. From there, a first appointment can be scheduled to talk about what matters most and plan the next steps together.

Online support
He also uses mindfulness techniques to help calm racing thoughts and bring attention back to the present. Mindfulness exercises can be short and practical, useful for stress, anxiety and when grief feels overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Geoffrey treats this as a collaborative process and will explore what feels most helpful for each person. Together they set goals and try methods that match the client's needs, preferences and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, short live chat check-ins can fit a break at work, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options help people fit therapy around daily life and maintain continuity when travel or timings are difficult.
