About Geoffrey
Geoffrey Stratton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 17 years of practice in Texas. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and problems that affect daily life.
Background and approach
Geoffrey draws on several well-known therapy approaches to shape conversations and goals with each person he sees. He keeps sessions straightforward and practical.
He listens for what matters most and works with people to set clear, doable steps. That can mean talking through relationship and intimacy concerns, addressing addiction or grief, or finding ways to cope with career and parenting demands.
Geoffrey uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and take small meaningful actions. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that get in the way.
Attachment-based ideas guide work around close relationships and how early patterns show up now. The therapist aims to make therapy collaborative.
He explains options, checks in about what’s working, and adjusts the plan as needs change. Sessions are adapted to the person rather than following a one-size-fits-all method.
People who reach out can expect a respectful and direct approach that balances empathy with practical steps. Geoffrey supports work on self-esteem, coping with life changes, trauma, ADHD, caregiver stress, and a wide range of emotional concerns.
He accepts sessions in English and works with international clients when appropriate.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Geoffrey blends a few approaches that translate well to remote work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and commit to small actions that reflect those values. It’s often useful when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed by choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns of behavior. It typically involves short exercises and practical homework that can be done between sessions to build new skills.
Attachment-based ideas shape work around relationship patterns and how early connections affect current behavior. That perspective helps when intimacy, communication, or trust are central concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose or combine methods and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or lower bandwidth, and messaging formats are useful for short updates, reflection, or between-session support. These options make it easier to keep momentum and fit therapy into a busy life.
