Georgio Laporta, NCPS

Georgio Laporta is a counsellor and psychotherapist with ten years of practice in the United Kingdom. He describes his work as helping people regain control after difficult experiences such as trauma, substance use, diagnosis or illness. He aims to increase life satisfaction, purpose and motivation through therapy. Georgio draws on a broad academic background and uses a mix of clinical approaches. He emphasises the connection between mind and body and looks at how thoughts and personal stories shape feelings and behaviour. Sessions focus on understanding those patterns and finding practical ways to change them. He often works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and mood disorders, as well as addiction and trauma-related issues. He also supports people dealing with relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, career questions and life changes. Additional areas of focus include chronic illness, blended family concerns, first responder issues and ADHD-related difficulties. In sessions Georgio combines elements from client-centred work, cognitive approaches, mindfulness and trauma-focused methods. He also uses narrative ideas to help people reframe their stories. Which approaches are used is decided together with the person in therapy, based on what helps most. Outside of work he spends time with his family and dogs, plays music and football, and reads on psychological ideas. He brings that same curiosity and practical focus into the counselling room, aiming to help people make steady, realistic changes.

How Georgio’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience without judgement. It helps people feel heard and develop their own solutions over time.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. It uses practical steps and experiments to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful habits.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce stress and interrupt automatic reactions. It can be useful for anxiety, sleep issues and coping with ongoing pain or illness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Georgio will talk through goals, preferences and responses to different methods, and choose what to try together. The process is collaborative and open to change as therapy progresses.
