Georgina McBurney, BACP

Georgina McBurney is a psycho-spiritual counsellor who attends to the whole human experience - spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. She blends conversational work with body-focused somatic techniques to support healing, growth and onward movement for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression and life transitions.

Georgina has a particular specialism in Inner Child Therapy, helping adults explore their relationship with themselves, their past and with others. This work can be especially useful for those managing depression, anxiety, trauma, codependency, trust and intimacy challenges, and habitual patterns of acting in or acting out. Her style is warm, creative and collaborative, with an emphasis on practical psycho-education to empower change within shorter-term work.

Rather than prioritising diagnostic labels, Georgina focuses on each person’s lived experience and tailors creative counselling, ecotherapy and psychospiritual approaches to individual needs and online delivery methods. She brings broad life experience to her practice, with previous roles in the armed forces, first responder work, science teaching, animal behaviour and kinship foster caring.

Georgina holds BACP credentialing - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and offers support by telephone and online for those ready to reconnect with themselves and move toward a more fulfilling life.

Therapeutic approaches for online healing and practical change

Georgina uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients identify clear, achievable goals and build on existing strengths. This goal-oriented approach suits people seeking relief from stress, anxiety and life-transition challenges by focusing on practical steps forward rather than lengthy exploration of problems.

Somatic Therapy in her practice connects the body’s sensations with emotional and psychological patterns, offering ways to release stored tension and to work with trauma, post-traumatic stress and chronic stress responses through gentle body-based awareness.

Internal Family Systems helps people explore the different parts of themselves - for example protective, wounded or critical parts - and to develop greater self-leadership, which can support healing from trauma, improving self-esteem and resolving inner conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Georgina works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences. Together they review progress and adapt techniques as therapy unfolds.

Online therapy with Georgina is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexible options to fit work, caregiving or mobility needs. These remote formats make it easier to access regular support and to continue therapy from home or other convenient locations.
