About Jorge
Jorge Damasceno is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, anger and career questions. Sessions are offered in English and Portuguese and he pays attention to multicultural and men's issues.
Jorge uses a mix of approaches and tailors each session to the person in front of him. He draws on client-centred methods to follow what matters most to the client. He also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns.
He describes his practice as integrative, working collaboratively to choose methods that suit the person’s goals. That may include talking about life purpose, fatherhood issues, guilt or forgiveness, and communication problems. He also addresses phobias, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, social anxiety and other focused concerns.
Jorge has worked with people who want practical coping strategies as well as those wanting to reflect on deeper patterns from a psychodynamic or existential perspective. Sessions can include motivational interviewing to help with change and commitment when needed. He aims to combine short-term problem solving with longer-term exploration depending on what the client wants.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How his therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach centre the conversation on the client’s priorities and pace, helping clarify values and immediate concerns.Cognitive behavioural therapy is practical and structured. Online CBT commonly involves identifying thinking patterns, testing unhelpful beliefs and trying behavioural experiments between sessions to reduce anxiety or depression symptoms.
Existential therapy looks at meaning, choices and responsibility in life. In an online setting this can become focused conversations about life purpose, career direction or navigating major changes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and recommend a mix of methods that fit the person’s needs. Clients and therapist review what’s working and adjust the plan together as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or choosing audio-only when video would be difficult. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help therapy fit into everyday routines.
