Geoffrey Fenney

Geoffrey Fenney is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience and a BACP credential. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and those coping with grief. Geoffrey aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful of each person’s story.

He believes clients are the experts on their own lives and brings that view into sessions. Geoffrey listens for strengths and helps people use those strengths to tackle what feels overwhelming. He keeps language simple and focuses on practical next steps as conversations progress.

Geoffrey draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches to help people understand relationship patterns and feel heard. He also uses Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing to support motivation and coping in daily life. These methods are blended to match the needs of each person who comes to therapy.

Typical concerns he supports include abandonment and attachment issues, family and blended family problems, body image and self-esteem struggles, and the emotional effects of illness, chronic pain or cancer. He also works with issues such as codependency, addiction, commitment and control worries, divorce and separation, fatherhood concerns, guilt and shame.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with time spent reflecting on patterns and trying small, real-life changes. Geoffrey encourages people to move at their own pace while noticing what helps between appointments.

Approaches that shape online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect feelings and behaviour. It helps people notice patterns in close relationships and practise new ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgment. It helps clients feel heard and to explore choices at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Geoffrey will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. Together they review what has been helpful and adjust the plan as needed, making changes if something does not fit.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, caring responsibilities or treatment schedules. It also lets people choose shorter check-ins or quieter sessions when needed, and it removes travel time so therapy can sit more easily in a busy week.
