Gorazd Valjavec

Gorazd Valjavec is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. He offers online counselling designed to meet people where they are and to help them pause, reflect and consider different options. Gorazd values honesty, connection and a straightforward approach in sessions.

He aims to create a space where clients feel understood and accepted. That sense of connection is central to change, he says, and it helps people face difficult moments with more clarity. Gorazd listens closely and shapes sessions around each person's needs.

His work draws on a blend of approaches so sessions can be adapted to what suits the person. He pays attention to how past experiences affect choices today and helps clients make sense of recurring patterns. This can support shifts in self-acceptance and decision-making.

Sessions may include creative methods when appropriate, such as storytelling, photography, music and work with dreams. Those tools are used to open new ways of thinking and feeling about problems like stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain and anger.

Gorazd has six years of experience and records his professional standing with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He offers work in English and several other languages and accepts international clients through his online practice.

How his approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape feelings and responses. Online work with this approach looks at patterns in how people connect and helps them try different ways of relating that reduce tension and anger. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person's experience and uses empathic listening; it helps people feel heard and make decisions at their own pace. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and work with emotions directly to change unhelpful patterns in relationships and self-regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and adapt methods as understanding grows. The process is collaborative, so the person and therapist decide together which approaches to use.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow for shorter or longer check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to see a therapist who speaks a preferred language or to maintain continuity while living abroad. Registered or accredited professionals generally tailor sessions to what works best for each person.
