Georgios Bligouras, BACP

Georgios Bligouras is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and major life changes. He also helps with relationship and intimacy issues, addiction concerns, grief and self-esteem. Georgios works with people who are LGBT and those coping with trauma and abuse. He uses a person-centred stance and focuses on helping people find their own voice and agency.

He holds BACP accreditation, which means he is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Georgios has five years of experience in therapeutic practice and has worked with people at different stages of life and difficulty.

In sessions he encourages open talk about feelings and past experiences. He aims to help people recognise repeated patterns that keep them stuck. Conversations are guided by the person’s pace and priorities rather than a fixed script.

Georgios draws on several approaches to tailor the work. He uses Client-Centred Therapy to build a trusting relationship and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how feelings shape relationships. He also brings existential questions into work about meaning and life direction.

People can expect practical focus alongside reflective conversation. Georgios supports clients in identifying small changes to try between sessions. His aim is to help people feel more able to make decisions, manage emotions and live in ways that match their values.

How Georgios' approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a supportive relationship where the person feels heard and accepted. This approach helps with self-esteem, anxiety and decisions about life direction by prioritising the client's experience and pace.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions affect close relationships. It helps people identify patterns in how they respond to others and tries to create new ways of connecting that reduce repeated conflict and distance.

Georgios treats the choice of approach as a collaborative decision. He will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will try methods and adjust the shape of sessions as needed to suit what works in practice.

If you are considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins between commitments. It also lets people choose quieter surroundings or shorter sessions when that helps them engage more readily. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt these approaches to remote sessions and will explain how they plan to work before you start.
