About Geanina
Geanina Roman works with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship difficulty and coping with life changes. She offers non-structured counselling where the client chooses the focus of each session. Geanina is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience.
She sees adults who want to address long-standing patterns and current problems. Sessions often begin with the concerns you bring and move at a pace you choose. Geanina uses a mix of talking, mindfulness and body-aware (somatic) techniques when these suit the work.
Her training includes Psychosynthesis, which she describes as a psychology of hope. This approach looks at how past patterns may no longer serve you, and at ways to develop personal strengths and potential. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to map the origins of difficult patterns.
Mindfulness is used to help with grounding and noticing experience in the present. Jungian ideas may be introduced when exploring personal symbols and inner life. The overall style is client-centred - the counsellor follows what matters to the person in the room.
Sessions may include creative and body-based exercises when they fit the agreed focus. Geanina works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. Her practice has developed over three years of working with adults on the issues listed above.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person in the room. Online conversations can still use this style by allowing the client to set the agenda and pace. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and how past experiences shape present feelings; this can be discussed simply through reflective talking and guided exploration. Mindfulness Therapy teaches noticing thoughts and bodily sensations in the moment; short guided exercises can be used during an online session to support grounding and attention.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options and agree what to try based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may change as the work develops.
The practical benefits of online counselling can include fitting sessions around other commitments and reducing travel time. Different formats suit different people for practical reasons such as quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth needs or a shorter check-in when time is limited. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking.
