About me

Georga Gorrell is a qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist (MNCPS Accredited), with a specialism in trauma, attachment, and depth psychology.

How I Work:

I support adults who are navigating emotional disconnection, anxiety, or longstanding patterns that no longer serve them.

My approach is gentle, depth-focused, and grounded in a real relationship. I work with you to understand the patterns you’ve carried, often shaped by early relationships, and to begin reconnecting with your inner world in a way that feels safe, steady, and supportive.

My work draws on:

  • Attachment and relational therapy
  • Trauma-informed practice
  • Inner child and parts work
  • Nervous system awareness
  • A holistic view of mental health, including emotional, physical, and relational wellbeing

You don’t need to have a single “issue” to come to therapy. This is a space to begin understanding yourself, and finding new ways of being. Together, we explore the roots of your patterns and rebuild safety in how you relate to yourself and to others.

Therapy Format:

All new clients begin with an 8-week commitment, a contained space to build trust, explore what’s coming up for you, and begin the work with steadiness and clarity.

  • Standard Programme: 1 session/week
  • Intensive Programme: 2 sessions/week

After 8 weeks, we review and decide together how to move forward, based on what feels right for you. Most clients continue long-term as we work through deeper emotional patterns and support lasting change.

Introductory Call:

I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation. This is a space to ask questions, share a little about what’s bringing you to therapy, and get a feel for how I work.

Training, qualifications & experience

Professional Background:

I have over 1,000 hours of therapy experience supporting adults and children with a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. My work is rooted in trauma-informed, attachment-focused therapy and integrates depth psychology and holistic principles.

Alongside private practice, I’ve supported clients across a broad spectrum of emotional experiences, from high-functioning disconnection and burnout to acute distress involving trauma, grief, and emotional crisis. My background includes working with individuals navigating abuse, suicidal ideation, and long-standing patterns of emotional suppression.

I also have experience in forensic settings supporting both adults and children affected by crime, which deepened my capacity to hold complex trauma with care, clarity, and nervous system awareness. Grief and loss remain a central thread in my work, including bereavement, relational breakdown as well as more subtle forms of loss that often go unseen but deeply felt.

Training, Qualifications & Accreditation:

  • Postgraduate Certificate in Psychology (PGCert Psych)
  • Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling & Psychotherapy (Dip Couns): Level 5
  • Cruse Certificate in Bereavement
  • Certificate in Counselling Skills: Level 3
  • Certificate in Counselling: Level 2
  • Bachelor of Arts (BA Hons) in Performing Arts

I am an MNCPS Accredited Registrant and work in line with the NCPS Code of Ethics. I hold an Enhanced DBS Certificate, full Professional Liability Insurance, and engage in regular CPD to deepen and sustain the quality of my work.
