Georgios Bligouras, BACP

Georgios Bligouras is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. He works with issues such as relationships, self-esteem, grief, addictions and trauma. He also supports people dealing with career concerns, compassion fatigue and aging and geriatric issues. Georgios offers sessions in English and Greek and has five years of professional experience.

His practice is rooted in a person-centred way of working that starts with listening. He aims to create time and space for people to talk through feelings without pressure. The goal is to help people notice what matters to them and to make choices that reflect their values.

Georgios draws on emotionally-focused and existential approaches when relationships or life meaning are at the centre of difficulties. He also uses solution-focused and trauma-focused methods to help with specific problems and recovery after distressing events. These approaches are used flexibly to match a person's needs.

In sessions he encourages people to uncover their authentic voice and to take small, practical steps forward. Conversations look at patterns that keep someone stuck and at ways to respond differently. The emphasis is on steady, realistic change rather than quick fixes.

Georgios is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works from the United Kingdom. He accepts international clients and asks people to use the Start Therapy button to begin the matching process.

How his approaches translate to online counselling

Georgios combines person-centred listening with emotionally-focused and trauma-aware work to help people understand feelings and repair relationships. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathy and acceptance so clients can explore what matters to them and make meaningful choices. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify key emotions in relationship difficulties and learn new ways of responding. Trauma-Focused Therapy supports people to process distressing events and reduce the emotional hold of past experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Georgios will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals, needs and preferences. He tailors the mix of listening, emotion work and practical problem-solving as you go along.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support people who live abroad, since he accepts international clients. Ask about scheduling and format details during the matching process so sessions fit your everyday life.
