About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Norton is a UK-based counsellor with three years of professional experience. He holds BACP and NCPS credentials and works mainly with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and self-esteem difficulties. Geoffrey brings a person-centred outlook to his work and aims to offer a steady, non-judgemental space for people to talk through what matters to them.
He describes his practice as relational and grounded in listening. Geoffrey focuses on building a trusting connection and uses that relationship as the starting point for change.
Background and approach
Sessions often involve exploring thoughts and feelings to help people make sense of painful patterns. Geoffrey draws on several therapeutic ideas but leans towards client-centred, existential and solution-focused approaches. This mix lets him respond to immediate concerns while also looking at life meaning and longer-term change.
He adapts how he works to the needs of each person rather than following one strict method. Outside of training, Geoffrey has lived in Spain, the USA and Colombia and has done varied jobs before moving into psychotherapy. He sees that life experience as informing his practice and helping him relate to different situations.
People come to him for a wide range of issues including relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and parenting strain. Geoffrey aims to help people reduce distress, build clearer choices and move toward what matters to them. Sessions are available in English and Geoffrey is willing to work with people beyond the UK.
He offers a calm, patient manner and a straightforward approach to getting started.

Approaches Geoffrey lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Existential therapy looks at meaning, values and life direction. It helps people who feel stuck, empty or unsure about purpose to consider what matters and make deliberate changes.
Solution-focused therapy targets practical steps and short-term goals. It suits people who want clear, actionable change and techniques to manage stress or specific problems.
Finding the right mix is collaborative. Geoffrey will work with each person to decide which approach or combination fits their needs, goals and preferences. He treats the process as a conversation rather than a fixed plan.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues; phone can be easier when internet speed is limited; chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins and flexibility around work or caregiving. These options aim to make counselling more accessible and easier to fit into a busy life.
