About George

George Hamilton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of clinical experience. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and holds NCPS credentials. George works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and low self-esteem. He also supports those dealing with trauma, intimacy-related issues and compassion fatigue.

His approach combines several methods to suit each person’s needs. He draws on the Gottman Method to address communication and relationship patterns. He uses psychodynamic ideas to help people understand how past experiences shape current feelings. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear, practical goals and small steps forward.

George aims for a respectful and compassionate tone in sessions. He listens for what matters most to each person and adapts his way of working accordingly. Discussions are grounded and practical, often moving from understanding to concrete steps that can be tried between meetings.

He has particular interest in attachment issues, communication problems and the complexities around divorce and separation. Other areas he addresses include domestic violence, infidelity, guilt and shame, and questions of life purpose and self-love.

To begin, George asks people to share their concerns so together they can shape a plan. He emphasises collaboration and gradual change, helping people find clearer ways to cope and move forward.

How these approaches can work online

George uses the Gottman Method, which focuses on improving communication and reducing repeated negative patterns in relationships. It helps people notice how they argue and learn specific skills to connect more positively. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences influence present feelings and behaviour, helping people understand repeated reactions and where they come from.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, concerns and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as things change, so the work feels collaborative and practical.

Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online counselling can help fit work or family life around sessions, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep appointments when schedules are tight. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when people need a brief update rather than a full session. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which format will suit a person’s needs during the first conversation and help arrange sessions that fit into everyday life.
