About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Fenney is a BACP-credentialled counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and depression. Geoffrey works from several approaches including attachment-based, client-centred, mindfulness, motivational interviewing and psychodynamic work.
Geoffrey frames the client as the expert in their own life. He looks for strengths the person already has and uses those when tackling difficult problems. Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational, with time spent understanding what matters most to the client.
In practice he helps people talk through immediate issues like panic, low mood and grief. He also addresses longer-standing patterns such as attachment wounds, abandonment concerns and codependency. Practical steps and short-term goals are used alongside reflective work on feelings and relationships.
People come with a wide range of concerns including body image, work and family stress, chronic illness and addiction. Geoffrey can support those dealing with divorce, fatherhood pressures, guilt and forgiveness as part of the broader work.
He uses mindfulness exercises to help with grounding and emotion regulation, and motivational interviewing to build readiness for change. Psychodynamic ideas are brought in to look at repetitive relationship patterns when useful. The overall aim is to make therapy clear, manageable and relevant to everyday life.

How his approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect present feelings and reactions. In online sessions this can help people understand why they repeat certain relationship patterns or feel especially vulnerable in close connections.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says, helping them find their own solutions. Delivered remotely, it supports clear, conversational sessions where the counsellor follows the client’s lead and helps them make sense of their priorities.
Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple practices to help notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgement. These short exercises can be used in-session and practised between meetings to manage anxiety, low mood and stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Geoffrey will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. That discussion shapes how sessions are run and which techniques are used.
The practical benefits of remote work include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Remote appointments can be easier to schedule during work breaks and allow for brief check-ins when needed.
