About Georgios
Georgios Drakos draws on Motivational Interviewing alongside integrative, person-centred work to help people find clearer direction and gradual change. He writes simply and listens closely, aiming to make talking about difficult things feel manageable. Georgios is based in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration, with seven years of clinical experience.
He spends time understanding how relationships and family systems shape a person’s life. Sessions focus on real concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, stress and addictions. Georgios also supports people facing issues around identity, intimacy, body image and career pressures.
His practice combines techniques from several approaches so sessions are adapted to each person. Conversations may include exploring values, setting small achievable goals, and working through painful memories at a pace that feels right. The aim is to help people build coping skills and clearer choices rather than quick fixes.
Georgios has worked in a range of settings, including helpline and crisis services, and with both short-term and longer-term clients. That background shapes a flexible style that can include focused goal work or deeper reflective therapy depending on need.
He speaks English and Greek and accepts international clients. To start, Georgios encourages people to take the first step and complete the short matching questionnaire so sessions can be arranged according to availability.

How Georgios uses therapy approaches online
Georgios draws on Motivational Interviewing, which helps people clarify what matters to them and build small steps towards change. That approach suits issues like motivation, addictions and making life adjustments. He also works from an attachment-based perspective, which looks at how close relationships shape feelings and behaviour and can help with relationship, grief and intimacy concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Georgios plans therapy collaboratively and will help you choose methods that match your goals and preferences. Sessions can focus on values and goal-setting, practical coping skills, or deeper reflection on past relationships depending on what you want to work on.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help sustain ongoing progress between in-person appointments for people who travel or live further away. Registered or accredited professionals like Georgios aim to adapt session length and focus so therapy fits everyday routines and practical needs. -
