Geraldine HoustonBACP

Geraldine Houston works with people facing a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and issues around pregnancy and childbirth. She supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, mood disorders, ADHD and feelings of isolation. Geraldine approaches clients with respect, sensitivity and compassion. She aims to help people take the first steps toward change and more fulfilling lives.

Geraldine has eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She adapts conversations and plans to each person's situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps that a person can use between meetings.

People can expect a calm, patient style and straightforward talk about feelings, thoughts and behaviour. Geraldine listens for what matters most and helps break big problems into smaller tasks. She also works through practical coping ideas for stress, mood shifts and addiction-related cravings.

Her additional experience includes supporting those facing fertility issues, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and the emotional impact of cancer. She also helps with control issues, hoarding, jealousy and the consequences of domestic violence or separation.

Geraldine speaks English and accepts international clients. To begin, readers are invited to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their needs.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Geraldine works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach emphasises identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing different ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and low mood. This helps people spot patterns and try small experiments between sessions.

Another approach concentrates on coping skills for stress, cravings and intense emotions. It teaches short, usable strategies for calming down, grounding and managing urges when they arise. That kind of work is useful for addictions, mood swings and caring for someone with a serious illness.

Finding the right mix of ways to work together is part of therapy. Geraldine will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. If something does not feel helpful, she adjusts the plan and tries alternatives together.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy day, reduce travel and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find virtual sessions help them keep continuity during life changes while still focusing on concrete steps and emotional recovery.
