About Geraldine
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 8 years of experience, Geraldine Houston helps people with addictions, trauma, grief, mood and relationship concerns. She works with issues such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, eating and intimacy-related problems. She also supports people facing career strain, parenting pressures, bereavement and life changes.
Geraldine frames conversations around whatever each person brings. She listens for practical problems and patterns that keep things difficult. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps people can try between meetings to test what helps. The approach is choice-based rather than prescriptive; she adapts methods to fit each person’s situation.
Her work covers a wide range of concerns beyond the most common ones. These include abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, fertility and end-of-life matters. She also addresses feelings such as guilt, shame, jealousy, isolation and compassion fatigue.
Geraldine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and prefers to apply methods that match a person’s needs. She will discuss options and explain what to expect from different ways of working. That helps people decide what to try first and what to change if something isn’t working.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and pick a time for a first session. Geraldine works in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Geraldine uses therapeutic approaches online
Geraldine works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She commonly employs practical, structured approaches that focus on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour and testing small changes. These methods can help with anxiety, depression, mood disorders and coping with life transitions.She also uses approaches that address trauma and grief by helping people name difficult experiences and develop manageable ways to process those feelings. That can include setting small goals, learning grounding skills and pacing difficult conversations so they do not become overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist discusses options together, reviews what has helped before, and agrees a plan that fits the person’s aims and preferences. That collaborative process includes checking how methods are going and adapting them if needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a person’s schedule. Registered or accredited professionals can also use remote meetings to maintain continuity of care when life or location changes occur.
