About Geraldine

Geraldine Davenport works in the United Kingdom and brings over 20 years of experience to her counselling practice. She offers a calm, practical style that focuses on helping people reduce anxiety and stress, improve self-esteem, and manage relationship difficulties. Geraldine uses straightforward language in sessions and aims to make therapy feel approachable for those who are nervous about reaching out.

Her work often focuses on the impact of trauma and painful relationships.

Background and approach

She helps people understand how past hurts shape current feelings and behaviours so they can begin to feel safer in themselves. This includes support for those dealing with grief, intimacy issues and the effects of domestic violence. Geraldine draws on Client-Centred Therapy to build a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can explore what matters to them.

She also uses Psychodynamic Therapy to uncover recurring patterns and the roots of difficult feelings. Together these approaches guide practical steps and deeper self-understanding. She supports people coping with family problems, parenting strain, career stress and life changes.

Additional areas she works with include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, codependency, blended family questions and challenges linked to autism and Asperger syndrome. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Geraldine is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

How Geraldine’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a respectful, listening way of working. The therapist follows the person’s pace, offers empathy and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, working through relationship worries and coping with life changes.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat in a person’s feelings and relationships. It helps people understand how past experiences influence present behaviour. This way of working can be useful for addressing trauma, abandonment or attachment concerns and long-standing emotional pain.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Geraldine will work collaboratively to identify which method or mix of methods best fits each person’s needs, goals and preferences. Together they will review progress and adjust the focus as therapy develops.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different lives and schedules. Video calls let people work face to face from a distance, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, live chat offers shorter check-ins and text messaging works well for ongoing support without being on camera. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life for people in the UK.
