About Nadezda
Counsellor Nadezda Georgiou is a BACP and NCPS member with eight years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. Sessions are aimed at people who want to better understand patterns that keep returning in their life.
Nadezda works in a conversational way that keeps the client's perspective central. She uses ideas from psychodynamic thinking to look at unconscious patterns and attachment issues. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and practical coping strategies.
Her training includes a BA (Hons) in Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies and an accredited diploma in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Nadezda does not present herself as an authority who will tell clients what to do. Instead she helps people name difficulties and test small changes between sessions.
In practice she looks at how past events affect relationships now. This includes exploring abandonment, family of origin issues and attachment difficulties. She also works with problems such as codependency, communication difficulties and commitment worries.
People with health-related stress, chronic pain or caring responsibilities are within her scope. She brings together Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred ideas to support values-based change alongside practical symptom work. Sessions are a mix of reflection, noticing patterns and trying out new ways of coping.
If someone is unsure what to expect, she suggests a short initial conversation followed by a plan for the first few sessions. Booking details and session format should be confirmed before arranging a first meeting.
How therapeutic approaches guide online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on what matters to the person and on taking small actions that match those values. It helps when worries or low mood get in the way of living a valued life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present patterns. It is useful for repeated relationship problems, abandonment fears or difficulty trusting others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and agree an approach together. That way methods can be adjusted if something is not helping and different techniques can be tried over time.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into ordinary routines, for example by removing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in at the end of a workday. It also lets people use methods such as ACT exercises and CBT worksheets between sessions, so practical steps can be tested in day-to-day life.
