About Gorazd
Gorazd Valjavec is a BACP counsellor who offers integrative, person-focused therapy. He works online from the United Kingdom and aims to create a dependable space for people to reflect on what matters to them. His style is straightforward and warm, with an emphasis on listening and building connection.
Gorazd explains things simply and avoids jargon. He spends time understanding a person's history and how past experiences shape current choices. This helps people gain clearer insight and make different decisions going forward.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around each person's needs. He blends several therapeutic approaches and adapts his work to suit culture, personality and preferences. People are invited to use creative methods too, such as storytelling, photography, music and working with dreams if that feels helpful.
Gorazd commonly supports people with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief and trauma. He also works with concerns such as addiction, ADHD, self-esteem, career worries and compassion fatigue. He lists LGBT among his focus areas and speaks English, Croatian, Slovenian and Serbian.
With six years of experience, he aims to offer a respectful, non-judgemental space. The first steps are a short matching questionnaire and booking through the Start Therapy flow, after which sessions are scheduled according to therapist availability.

How key approaches shape online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current patterns. It helps people notice attachment needs and learn new ways of relating that reduce anxiety and improve closeness. Client-Centred Therapy centres on providing an accepting, non-judgemental space where the person leads the pace and topics. This approach can be helpful for people who need understanding before making changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotions in relationships and within the self to identify core feelings and unmet needs, which supports work on intimacy and connection.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and life circumstances and then recommend or try approaches that fit. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted over time as needs change.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the supplied biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quieter check-in during a lunch break or between commitments. It also lets people choose whether to use audio or video, depending on what feels most comfortable and practical.
