About Cindy

Dr. Cindy George is a BACP-registered counsellor with 25 years of clinical experience practising in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression and anger, and also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Her background includes work across private practice, community mental health, substance abuse centres, psychiatric hospitals, schools and corporate settings. That range means she has seen problems that start at work, at home and inside a person’s thinking patterns.

In sessions she uses straightforward approaches drawn from client-centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas and dialectical behaviour concepts among others. That means talking through what is happening, looking at the thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going, and practising practical skills to change how someone manages strong emotions.

She also draws on narrative and existential ideas to help people reframe difficult experiences and consider meaning and values. Conversations can include looking at communication patterns, control issues, body image and problems around commitment and forgiveness.

People bring all kinds of concerns, from grief and trauma to career and parenting stress. The focus is on clear, practical steps - improving communication, reducing reactive responses, and building better coping strategies that fit everyday life.

To begin, prospective clients use the site matching process and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Dr Cindy George often uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in her practice. Client-centred work means the therapist listens and responds to the person’s concerns, helping them clarify what matters and what they want to change. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them, with practical exercises to change behaviours and reduce reactive responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different methods with each person and decide together which fits their goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying skills-based work, reflective narrative conversations, or a mix of approaches to suit the issue at hand.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions are often a practical way to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter or more frequent check-ins when that helps. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can use remote sessions to focus on skill practice, communication coaching and managing strong emotions without asking you to change daily routines.
