About Georgios

Georgios Bligouras is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, self-esteem and life changes. He also supports those facing addictions, trauma, grief, intimacy worries, anger and workplace strain. Sessions are offered in English and Greek and he accepts international clients.

Georgios uses person-centred ideas to help people find clearer ways to express feelings. He listens for what matters to each person and helps them name the patterns that keep repeating in their relationships. He often brings in approaches from emotionally-focused work and solution-focused techniques to address attachment issues, codependency and problems with boundaries.

When trauma or abuse is part of the picture he draws on trauma-focused methods to help people manage distressing memories and reactions. Existential ideas are used to help people face big life choices and questions about meaning when careers, relationships or identity feel stalled.

Sessions tend to look like straightforward conversations about what is happening now and what someone wants to change. Georgios helps people spot unhelpful habits such as over-giving or avoiding conflict, and then works on practical steps to try in day-to-day life. He encourages small experiments, clear goal-setting and reviewing what works.

People who contact him are usually asking for help with who they are in relationships and how to stop losing themselves. He aims to help people speak more honestly, set clearer boundaries and make decisions that feel more their own.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Georgios draws on person-centred practice to place the client's experience at the centre of each session. That means the work starts from what feels most pressing and follows the person's pace, using active listening and reflection to clarify feelings and choices.

He also uses emotionally-focused therapy ideas to map how attachment and interaction patterns shape relationships. This helps when someone keeps prioritising others or struggles to name their needs in close relationships. Solution-focused techniques are used alongside these approaches to set small, practical goals and try experiments between sessions to test what changes behaviour.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Georgios will talk through options with the client and adjust methods as needs and goals become clearer. This helps people try different ways of working until they find what fits.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, avoid travel and arrange shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals like Georgios can use these benefits to help people maintain regular contact while balancing work and life commitments.
