About George
Dr. George Baldwin is a clinical psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). He has six years' experience working across NHS and personal services, helping people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship strain.
He speaks English and works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally through online formats. He takes a warm, non-judgemental approach and adapts his way of working to suit each person.
Background and approach
Early in therapy he gathers relevant information and creates a clear, visual formulation with the client. This helps identify patterns in thoughts, feelings, actions and relationships and points to practical areas to work on. Sessions are usually 45 minutes and focus on noticing and changing thinking and behaviour patterns.
Therapy plans often include simple tasks to try between sessions, such as testing alternative thoughts or practising different responses. Progress is reviewed against the shared formulation so people can see changes over time. George has experience in a wide range of settings, including community mental health, psychiatric inpatient wards, physical health clinics and specialist fostering services.
He has worked with issues such as bipolar conditions, self-esteem, addiction, grief, chronic pain, and compassion fatigue. He is familiar with adapting approaches for neurodiversity including autism and attention differences. His background includes published research and clinical supervision of other psychological professionals.
People can expect clear explanation of options, regular review, and a collaborative plan that fits their goals and everyday life.

Online approaches and practical therapy options
Dr Baldwin commonly uses practical, evidence-based techniques that help people understand and change patterns. Cognitive behavioural approaches focus on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teach clear strategies for managing anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Systemic methods look at relationship and family patterns and help people spot how interactions keep problems going and what to try differently.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to test methods and agree what feels most helpful. Over a few sessions the formulation is adjusted and the plan changes to match the client's goals and day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different time zones. Video is useful for conversational work and visual formulations, phone calls use less bandwidth and can suit shorter check-ins, while live chat or messaging can support brief reflections between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible for varied needs and routines.
