About Georgios
Georgios Drakos uses a blend of trauma-focused, attachment-based and client-centred approaches to help people manage distress and rebuild after hard experiences. He works with issues such as anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. Georgios holds BACP and has seven years of practice in the United Kingdom, offering sessions in English and Greek.
In sessions he keeps the work straightforward and collaborative. People can expect help with coping strategies, clearer communication, and exploring how past relationships affect present feelings.
Background and approach
He adapts short-term or longer-term work depending on what a person needs. Georgios draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful patterns and on attachment-informed thinking to look at relationship dynamics. He also uses client-centred principles to follow each person's pace and priorities.
This mix aims to make therapy practical and personalised. He has experience supporting people after trauma, abuse, and loss, and he has worked in helplines and crisis services. That background informs how he approaches high-distress moments and practical coping steps.
Sessions can focus on self-esteem, addiction, LGBT concerns, eating issues, work stresses, or parenting and fatherhood themes. Georgios aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk, try things out, and set realistic goals. To start he asks people to reflect on their goals and current difficulties, then shapes the work around those aims.
Progress can be uneven and personal, and he encourages patience and self-compassion throughout the process.

Therapy approaches online and how they help
Georgios commonly draws on trauma-focused work to help people process distressing past events and reduce the ongoing impact of those memories. This approach aims to help people feel less overwhelmed by traumatic memories and to rebuild routines and safety in everyday life.He also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns in relationships and emotional responses. This can help people understand why they react in certain ways and practise new ways of relating. Client-centred work sits alongside these approaches, so sessions follow the person’s pace and priorities and focus on what feels most important to them.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Georgios will listen to your goals, discuss options and try methods collaboratively, adjusting the plan over time. He aims to find what fits your needs and preferences rather than imposing a single model.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible for work schedules, travel, or different day-to-day routines, and allow him to offer support in a way that fits your life.
