About Cindy
Dr. Cindy George is a counsellor with 25 years of experience who centres her work on practical support and clear communication. She draws on a range of therapy styles to help people manage stress, anxiety, mood problems and parenting concerns.
Her manner is warm and non-judgemental, and she focuses on what clients want to change now. Dr George uses straightforward, goal-focused conversations to identify patterns that cause distress. She helps people notice how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and then tries different ways to shift those patterns.
Background and approach
Sessions can include skills practice, new ways of telling personal stories, and exploring values that matter most to the client. Her training includes a PhD in counselling and professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). That background informs a flexible approach, mixing cognitive and emotion-focused work with narrative and person-centred ideas.
The aim is to match method to the person rather than follow a single technique. Over her career she has worked across many settings, including hospitals, community services and independent practice. That variety has shaped an ability to tailor sessions to everyday life and practical demands.
Therapy touches on relationship difficulties, grief, addictions, body image and areas such as parenting and career stress. Dr George offers online and remote session formats to suit different routines. She provides a calm space for exploring change, rebuilding confidence and testing new ways of coping.

Therapy approaches for online support and change
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experience. The counsellor listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach is helpful for building self-awareness, self-acceptance and confidence.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. Sessions often include practical exercises to test different thoughts and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, mood problems and panic symptoms.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers specific skills for handling strong emotions and improving coping. It can be useful where stress, intense reactions or self-management are central concerns.
Finding the right way of working is treated as a joint process. The counsellor will discuss options, listen to the client's goals and try approaches that suit their needs and preferences. Plans are adjusted together as progress is reviewed.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people share thoughts in writing and fit support around busy schedules. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions and to try techniques between appointments.
