Geraldine "Geri" Langton trained and practises as a person-centred counsellor in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and has 13 years of experience working with people facing anxiety, bereavement and changes to identity after job loss. Geri uses a calm, respectful manner to help people feel heard from the first session.

Her style is relaxed and centred on the person in front of her. Sessions focus on what the client is feeling and experiencing in everyday life.

Background and approach

Geri aims to create a steady, supportive space where people can talk without rush. She helps people talk through relationship strain, parenting concerns and grief. Other areas she addresses include stress, depression, addiction, trauma and intimacy-related worries.

She also supports people dealing with career crossroads, compassion fatigue and questions about life purpose. Geri draws on client-centred and existential approaches. That means she pays attention to who someone is now, and what matters to them going forward.

Conversations are guided by the client’s priorities rather than a fixed script. Sessions can explore attachment issues, body image, forgiveness and self-love work. Geri also offers support around hospice and end-of-life matters and women’s issues.

Her aim is practical help: to notice patterns, name painful feelings and look for steps that fit each person’s life. People who prefer a gentle, listening-led approach often find her style suits them. Geri works with people who want a thoughtful, conversational way to address change and difficult emotions.

How Geri’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of each session. The counsellor listens closely and follows the client’s lead, helping people name feelings and decide what matters most. This approach is useful for anxiety, self-esteem issues and relationship concerns.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility in someone’s life. It helps when people are facing big questions about purpose, midlife transitions or coping with loss. Conversations focus on values and the choices someone can make moving forward.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Geri will discuss what feels most useful and adapt her way of working to match a person’s goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasise listening, practical steps or exploration of life meanings.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial expressions and have a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter updates, ongoing coaching or when someone prefers to write rather than speak. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity between sessions.
