About Geoffrey

Geoffrey Stratton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas with 17 years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem and motivation concerns. He also supports those navigating relationship challenges, addiction issues, and life changes.

Geoffrey focuses on clear, direct talk in sessions. He listens for patterns that make daily life harder and helps people name emotions that are difficult to identify. This practical style aims to make feelings and choices easier to follow in real situations.

He uses several clinical approaches to guide work in therapy, including Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These methods are used to help clients recognize emotional responses, change unhelpful thinking, and act in ways that match their values.

Geoffrey has experience addressing a wide range of issues beyond mood and anxiety. His additional focus areas include attachment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image and eating issues, ADHD, and adjustment after loss or major life events. He also works with people dealing with complicated histories such as adoption or abandonment.

Sessions are conversational and goal-minded. Geoffrey aims to help people put small, practical steps into place between meetings. To begin, prospective clients choose an online therapy option, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Geoffrey blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based ideas in his work. EFT helps people notice and name core emotions and how those feelings shape patterns in relationships. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, actionable steps even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Attachment-based thinking looks at how early relational patterns affect present connections and emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Geoffrey will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape what happens in sessions and what gets tried between meetings.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it, and reduce travel time. Many people find that working this way lets them practice new skills in everyday contexts and keep momentum between appointments.
