Lovely woman who has been nothing but supportive

Reviewed December 2024

Geraldine has helped me greatly since we started working together a few months ago. She has helped me explore aspects of my childhood and has helped me improve my relationship with my mother. She is always there to listen and is very open minded and nonjudgemental. I'm very grateful for all we have done so far and it's great to know she will continue to be there to support me in the future to help me make sense of everything life throws at me and to help me catch myself when I start overthinking!

Hi I'm Gerri and I am licensed in the UK with 17 years of professional work experience.

In these uncertain times, our mental health and well-being is being put under greater strain. This can impact your relationships and family life, you may be feeling anxious, stressed concerned about your finances, work or your business, or you could be feeling depressed and lonely.

Healthy relationships are essential to our happiness, and yet all relationships face challenges, whether this be a romantic relationship or issues with family, friends or work colleagues. Some of these can be communication issues, not feeling heard, managing conflict, parenting, trust, affairs, feeling unwanted or overwhelmed.

Reaching out and getting the support you need can make a huge difference.

I know how confusing it can be to understand your emotions, I will help you to make the changes necessary to move forward with your life.

I will help you to reduce your stress, anxiety and improve your self-esteem and confidence.

Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and seem overwhelming, so thank you for reading my profile. I'm looking forward to us working together.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Geraldine is very lovely and warm. Her professional yet friendly approach really puts me at ease during our therapy sessions. She really makes me feel safe and listened too, whilst offering gentle and practical advice for me to do achieve in-between our sessions. My problems don't seem quite so big or scary after speaking with her.
