About Gorazd
Gorazd Valjavec is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. He focuses on stress, anxiety, depression and a wide range of relationship and intimacy-related concerns. He also works with issues such as addiction, grief, ADHD and trauma and abuse.
Gorazd offers online counselling from his base in London and describes his approach as integrative. He listens closely to what matters to each person and moves at a pace they find manageable. Sessions are framed around honesty, connection and straightforward reflection.
He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas alongside attachment-based and client-centred approaches. That means he pays attention to feelings and relationship patterns, and to how past experiences shape choices now. He invites practical and reflective conversation rather than relying only on explanation.
Gorazd makes space for creative ways of working when they help - for example storytelling, photography, music and dream material. He aims to help people get clearer about their history and how it affects current life decisions. This often leads to more self-acceptance and clearer next steps.
Language options include English, Croatian, Slovenian and Serbian. International clients are accepted. He asks people to use the site matching tool to choose online therapy options and book a first session.
How Emotionally-Focused and Attachment Work Translate Online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on naming and working with emotions that are hard to put into words. It is useful for people noticing repeating emotional or relational patterns and for those who want clearer understanding of how feelings drive their responses. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current ways of seeking connection and safety. It can help with worries about abandonment, closeness and trust. Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and following what matters most to the client, giving space for someone to lead the topics and pace of sessions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and together they will decide which approaches to emphasise. That collaborative process helps shape what happens in sessions rather than assuming a single method from the start.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work and family commitments, require less travel and can be shorter check-ins when time is limited. Online work also makes it possible to see a therapist who speaks English, Croatian, Slovenian or Serbian even if they live in a different country.
