About Geoff Norton (Counsellor for York Therapy Clinic)
Geoff Norton is one of our experienced adult counsellors at York Therapy Clinic, offering a warm, relational approach to therapy for individuals navigating a variety of emotional and psychological challenges.
Geoff specialises in helping adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties. At the heart of his practice is a belief in the power of human connection, with great importance placed on the therapeutic relationship, which he sees as central to healing and growth.
His work is rooted in a person-centred approach, drawing influence from Existential and Gestalt traditions, while also incorporating more directive, solution-focused techniques when appropriate. This integrative style allows Geoff to adapt his methods to meet the unique needs of each client.

Personal Journey to Counselling
Before entering the field of counselling, Geoff spent 25 years running a woodland management and craft business. Over time, he felt a pull towards something more socially meaningful—a role where he could use not just his hands, but his mind.
His desire to contribute more directly to the wellbeing of others led him to train as a counsellor. As a result of this and his previous work experience, Geoff brings a grounded, compassionate and human approach to his therapeutic work.
Originally from Barnsley, Geoff has travelled widely and held a variety of roles, from delivering rock salt in London to teaching English in Bogotá. These life experiences inform his open-minded and inclusive approach to working with others, as well as helping him develop skills that help his counselling approaches.
