Gorazd Valjavec, BACP

Gorazd Valjavec is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom who offers online sessions from his home in London. He describes his practice as integrative and focuses on building honest, caring connections. Gorazd aims to create a calm space where people can pause, reflect and work through what matters most to them.

He listens closely and tailors sessions to each person's needs. The work often looks at how past experiences affect current choices and relationships. That can help people understand patterns, build self-acceptance and make new decisions about the future.

Gorazd blends several therapy approaches to suit the person in front of him. Cultural background and personal stories are treated as important parts of the work. Sessions can include creative elements such as storytelling, photography, music and discussion of dreams when that feels helpful.

He prioritises empathy and connectedness as the basis for change. People bring concerns like stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma, addictions and questions around identity and intimacy. Gorazd also supports those coping with life changes, caregiver stress, ADHD and issues such as body image or commitment worries.

With six years of experience, Gorazd aims to be straightforward and practical in sessions. He encourages reflection and honest discussion so people can find clearer steps forward. He offers appointments in multiple languages, including English, Croatian, Slovenian and Serbian.

How his approaches work in online counselling

Gorazd uses Attachment-Based therapy to look at how early connections shape current relationships and emotional responses. This approach helps when trust, intimacy or attachment patterns cause pain or repeated conflict.

He also draws on Client-Centred therapy, putting the person's experience at the heart of sessions. That means listening closely, reflecting what is said and helping people find their own solutions rather than imposing answers.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Gorazd will discuss goals, preferences and past experiences and choose methods together with the client. That collaborative process helps match an approach to the issue at hand, whether it is grief, midlife questions, anxiety or trauma-related concerns.

Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into busy days. Online sessions can reduce travel time and make it simpler to attend from different locations, including for international clients. Because the original biography notes online counselling from his London home, please confirm current session formats and any other practical arrangements before booking.
