Georgios Drakos offers a practical, person-focused counselling approach rooted in attachment and client-centred ideas. He works in English and Greek and has seven years of experience supporting people through relationship problems, anxiety and depression. Georgios holds BACP registration and is based in the United Kingdom.

He uses straightforward, collaborative conversations to help people understand patterns that cause pain. Sessions look at relationships, early attachment experiences and how these affect current feelings and behaviour.

Background and approach

Cognitive-behavioural techniques are used when practical changes or coping skills are needed. Georgios has worked with people facing grief, loss and trauma as well as those managing stress, burnout and compassion fatigue. He also supports people dealing with addictions, body image concerns, intimacy-related issues and identity questions related to sexual orientation and gender.

Other areas he focuses on include career stress, eating issues, bipolar and mood difficulties. His way of working is to listen first and then build a plan together. He aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak at their own pace.

Sessions can be short-term problem-focused work or longer-term exploration, depending on what the person needs. Georgios invites people to bring what matters most to them and to set goals that feel right. He notices that change can be uneven and sometimes hard, and he helps people stay with the process while developing clearer ways of coping and relating.

Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life

Georgios commonly draws on attachment-based and client-centred ways of working alongside cognitive-behavioural techniques. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape how people connect and react now, helpful for relationship problems, abandonment feelings and attachment issues. Client-centred work focuses on listening, acceptance and the person’s own pace, which suits people wanting a supportive space to explore identity, grief or burnout. Cognitive-behavioural techniques help spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, depression and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and Georgios treats that as a joint task. He will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then tailor sessions so the method matches the person’s needs. That collaboration helps shape short-term goals or a longer plan for deeper work.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions for lower bandwidth or quick check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging for shorter or more frequent contact. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family life and different time zones while keeping the focus on practical progress and emotional understanding.
