Blended talking and body-based therapy
About Gideon
Gideon Reeve offers calm, practical support for people facing emotional strain. He aims to make the first steps simple and clear. Gideon writes plainly and listens closely to what matters to each person.
He works with adults across a wide range of concerns, from anxiety and depression to grief, addiction and relationship worries. Sessions are tailored around what the person needs right now. Gideon uses a mix of talking and body-based approaches to help people feel steadier.
Background and approach
He may focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts, sensing and grounding in the body, or looking at how past experiences affect today. Gideon trained in therapeutic counselling and holds a CPCAB level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and follows their code of ethics.
He also has a British Wheel of Yoga Teaching Diploma and a certificate from the Minded Institute in integrating yoga therapy with cognitive work. Before offering integrated therapy he worked for many years as a bodywork professional and began counselling two decades ago. Over the last four years he has combined these strands into his current practice.
This gives him experience with both talking and somatic techniques. People who choose to work with Gideon can expect a collaborative approach. He adapts methods to fit the person rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
The aim is clearer thinking, better self-understanding and more reliable ways to cope with life changes.

How Gideon’s approaches work online
Gideon commonly uses client-centred work to build a trusting conversation. This is mainly about listening, reflecting what is important and helping people find their own direction. It suits emotional concerns like low mood, self-esteem and life changes.He also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. CBT offers simple exercises and practical steps to reduce anxiety, manage low mood and change unhelpful patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Gideon will discuss goals and preferences with each person and try different methods to see what fits. The process is collaborative so adjustments are made as therapy progresses.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and body cues, phone sessions can be quicker check-ins with lower bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter, more flexible contact. These options let people choose what works best for them and their routine.
