Nadezda Georgiou, BACP, NCPS

Nadezda Georgiou focuses on supporting people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship breakdowns, grief or the effects of trauma and abuse. She speaks plainly and offers a steady presence while people work through painful feelings and confusing patterns. Nadezda begins by listening to what matters most to each person and then helps them find practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges.

She uses a blend of talking therapies that help with both present problems and past influences. Nadezda draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and attachment-based ideas to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and choose different responses. Sessions also look at how early relationships can shape current difficulties and how to make new, healthier choices.

Nadezda has eight years of clinical experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She also completed a BA (Hons) in Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies and a diploma in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. This background supports work with complex issues such as abandonment, codependency, chronic illness, caregiver stress and family of origin concerns.

Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. She helps people connect thoughts, feelings and actions, and then tries out practical steps that fit everyday life. Therapy can involve short-term tools for coping alongside deeper exploration of recurring relationship patterns.

Sessions are offered in English and are available via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. The first step is a short matching questionnaire, then scheduling is arranged to suit individual needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that fit their values; it is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical techniques to reduce distress and change unhelpful habits. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative plan can change over time as new issues come up or as different strategies prove helpful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when it matters, phone sessions suit those with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when a shorter, written format fits someone’s routine. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
