About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Fenney is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self esteem and depression. He also helps with related issues such as attachment concerns, blended family issues, addiction, and challenges around fatherhood and separation.
Geoffrey works from the view that people know their own stories and bring strengths into therapy. Sessions are conversational and focused on what the person brings to the room. He aims to help people name what is difficult, practise new ways of responding, and track small changes that make daily life easier.
His background includes using attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. He also draws on client-centred methods to follow a person’s priorities and on mindfulness techniques to build present-moment coping skills. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help finding direction or increasing their readiness for change.
In practice Geoffrey keeps sessions direct and practical. He helps people work through feelings around loyalty, loss, identity and control that often come up in blended households. He can talk through strategies for managing stress, setting boundaries, and rebuilding confidence after difficult events.
People who contact him usually want clear steps as well as a chance to be heard. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. Online work with attachment ideas helps people spot recurring patterns and practise different responses in everyday interactions. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the person’s priorities at the centre of sessions and uses open conversation to clarify what matters now and next. Mindfulness Therapy teaches brief attention exercises and grounding practices that can reduce overwhelm and improve emotional regulation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Geoffrey will discuss options and help decide what fits a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking as the biography does not list them explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or by avoiding video when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals provide the service and sessions aim to help people practise coping skills and plan small, achievable changes that suit everyday routines.
