George Prior, BACP

George Prior is a person-centred counsellor working in the United Kingdom.

About George

George Prior is a person-centred counsellor working in the United Kingdom. He has four years of experience helping people navigate anxiety, depression, grief and life changes. He aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can speak openly and feel heard.

He focuses on trauma and abuse alongside a wide range of concerns such as addictions, self-esteem and relationship problems. He also supports people facing career pressures, caregiver stress and issues around intimacy and sexuality.

Background and approach

His practice includes work with gender dysphoria and LGBT matters as part of wider emotional support. George uses a person-centred stance that values empathy and authenticity. Sessions follow what matters most to the client rather than a rigid plan.

This means conversations move at the client’s pace and concentrate on immediate priorities. Alongside person-centred work he draws on narrative and solution-focused methods. Narrative ideas help people separate their identity from difficult events and rewrite painful stories.

Solution-focused techniques help set small, practical goals and track progress between sessions. He is registered with the BACP, which guides his professional practice in the UK. Sessions are offered in English by video call, phone, live chat or messaging.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Ways of working George names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How these approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person rather than fixing them. The therapist provides empathic presence and reflects what matters to the client, which can help with anxiety, low mood and the emotional aftermath of trauma.

Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful events by treating problems as things that happen to them rather than who they are. This approach can be useful for processing abuse, identity concerns and feelings of emptiness by rewriting harmful stories.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, realistic steps that move someone toward their goals. It focuses on what already works and builds brief practical actions to create change between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and tailor methods to the client's needs, goals and pace. Decisions about technique are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video suits longer conversations and visual connection, phone can fit a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth situations, and messaging or live chat work well for quick updates or if someone prefers not to be on camera. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family life and different daily routines.
