George Prior, BACP

George Prior is a person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom. He brings four years of experience helping people as they face anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction and intimacy-related issues. He creates a calm, non-judgmental space for people to speak openly and be heard.

His work puts the client at the centre. Sessions steer around what matters to the person rather than a fixed agenda. This approach aims to help people reconnect with their own strengths and make choices that feel right for them.

George draws on narrative and solution-focused ideas alongside person-centred listening. Narrative work can help people reframe difficult experiences and separate themselves from painful stories. Solution-focused techniques are used to set realistic goals and find practical next steps between sessions.

He has supported people through grief, life changes, trauma and issues linked to identity such as gender dysphoria and LGBT concerns. He also works with addictions, eating difficulties, anger and career-related stress, among other concerns listed in his profile.

George follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy standards. Sessions are driven by compassion, honesty and respect for each person’s pace and preferences. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How his approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, focusing on empathy, acceptance and working at the client’s pace. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings without pressure.

Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about their lives and helps separate the person from their problems. It can be useful for issues like shame, grief or feeling stuck because it opens space to rewrite difficult narratives.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. George will discuss which methods suit a person’s needs and goals and adjust the focus as therapy develops. This is a collaborative process where the client’s preferences guide decisions.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as taking shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. If you are interested in remote work, confirm the specific session options available before booking so you know how appointments will be scheduled and conducted.
