About Gorazd
Gorazd Valjavec is a BACP-registered counsellor with six years' experience based in the United Kingdom. He works online from his London practice and focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, relationships, depression, addiction and grief. He also supports people facing identity and intimacy questions, career uncertainty, ADHD challenges and the pressures of life transitions.
Gorazd uses an integrative approach that draws on attachment-based ideas, emotionally-focused work and client-centred practice. He listens closely and helps people look at how their past affects choices now. Sessions aim to build clearer self-understanding and calmer decision-making rather than quick fixes.
His practice values honesty, connection and straightforward conversation. He encourages creative ways of working when helpful, including storytelling, photography, music and dreams. These are used alongside conversational therapy to explore feelings and patterns.
Gorazd describes the counselling relationship as rooted in feeling understood and accepted. That foundation is used to look at attachment patterns, communication issues and emotional responses that show up in relationships and daily life. He helps people notice patterns and try different ways of relating to themselves and others.
People who choose him often want to reflect on repeated patterns, make practical changes and find clearer direction. Sessions are spoken in English, Croatian, Slovenian and Serbian, and he accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How his therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Gorazd combines attachment-based principles, client-centred listening and emotionally-focused work to guide online sessions. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with intimacy, communication and trust issues. Client-centred practice focuses on listening, reflection and collaboration so people feel heard while they make decisions about change. Emotionally-focused techniques concentrate on identifying feelings and moments in relationships that keep problems repeating, and then trying new responses to shift those patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and decide together what methods to use. That collaborative planning can change as therapy proceeds and new priorities emerge.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy around study or work and avoiding travel between commitments. It also makes it easier to book sessions across different locations, especially for international clients; check time differences when scheduling. If you want to know which session formats are available, confirm the current options before booking so you understand how sessions will be arranged.
