For the past 15 years she has specialised in careers and employment coaching, combining motivational and personal development work with therapeutic support. More recently she has incorporated nutritional and skin care therapy into her holistic offer to address wellbeing from several angles.

Geraldine offers a flexible schedule with evening availability on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, and Friday afternoons. At times she may be presenting, attending meetings, or working within her practice, and she aims to respond to enquiries as promptly as possible. Her stated mission is to help people break cycles of negative emotion, regain motivation, and create lasting positive change through tailored therapeutic and coaching work.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in clarifying their values and taking small, practical steps toward a meaningful life while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is helpful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in close relationships and explores how those patterns affect current emotional life and relationships; it is useful for relationship difficulties, family issues, and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Geraldine works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best suit their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the blend of techniques as therapy progresses to ensure the work stays relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or to continue work when attending in person is difficult. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver many of the same therapeutic techniques remotely, allowing consistent progress while accommodating different communication styles and life circumstances.
