Geraldine has helped me greatly since we started working together a few months ago. She has helped me explore aspects of my childhood and has helped me improve my relationship with my mother. She is always there to listen and is very open minded and nonjudgemental. I'm very grateful for all we have done so far and it's great to know she will continue to be there to support me in the future to help me make sense of everything life throws at me and to help me catch myself when I start overthinking!

Hi I'm Gerri and I am licensed in the UK with 17 years of professional work experience.
In these uncertain times, our mental health and well-being is being put under greater strain. This can impact your relationships and family life, you may be feeling anxious, stressed concerned about your finances, work or your business, or you could be feeling depressed and lonely.
Healthy relationships are essential to our happiness, and yet all relationships face challenges, whether this be a romantic relationship or issues with family, friends or work colleagues. Some of these can be communication issues, not feeling heard, managing conflict, parenting, trust, affairs, feeling unwanted or overwhelmed.
Reaching out and getting the support you need can make a huge difference.
I know how confusing it can be to understand your emotions, I will help you to make the changes necessary to move forward with your life.
I will help you to reduce your stress, anxiety and improve your self-esteem and confidence.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and seem overwhelming, so thank you for reading my profile. I'm looking forward to us working together.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Very calm, understanding and experienced.
Geraldine has been wonderful to work with during our time together. She is very supportive and personable and always makes sure to check in between sessions. Geraldine has offered a number of great coping mechanisms that I can implement on a daily basis and makes me feel safe to open up and be completely honest.
Geraldine is very lovely and warm. Her professional yet friendly approach really puts me at ease during our therapy sessions. She really makes me feel safe and listened too, whilst offering gentle and practical advice for me to do achieve in-between our sessions. My problems don't seem quite so big or scary after speaking with her.
I have appreciated Geraldine's help. She has been the perfect listener and has given me truly sound advice when I need it.
Gerri is fantastic. She listens incredibly well and asks the right questions so I feel understood but also challenged when needed. Would highly recommend.
I've really enjoyed my time with Gerri so far and I look forward to my sessions. I find her really easy to talk to!
