Background and approach
Her background includes work across professional therapy services, social care, families, education and youth services in the United Kingdom and internationally. Geraldine has spent 15 years specialising in motivational, personal and careers coaching alongside therapeutic work. Her way of working is practical and collaborative.
Sessions aim to identify small steps that make a real difference. She blends conversation, reflective work and goal-focused tasks so people can see progress between appointments. Geraldine uses a range of approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred methods and motivational interviewing.
The mix is chosen to suit each person rather than follow one fixed method. People can expect a focus on building skills to manage difficult feelings, improving communication and making values-based choices. She also integrates coaching and wellbeing ideas to support lifestyle and career goals.
Geraldine communicates in plain language and aims to make sessions straightforward and usable in daily life.

How Geraldine’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify their values and take small steps toward them. It helps with anxiety, low mood and motivation by teaching practical ways to notice thoughts and choose meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on linking thoughts, feelings and actions and uses structured tasks to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and attachment dynamics to improve connection and reduce distress in close relationships.Choosing the right approach is often part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods that suit the person. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so the work fits real life.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people read facial cues and have a full conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit quick reflections, journalling-style work or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, family and other commitments.
