About George
George Brassea is a licensed clinical professional counselor with nine years of experience. He brings a calm, down-to-earth style to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. He focuses on how past relationships shape current patterns.
Conversations often look at attachment, family history, and recurring behaviors that get in the way of daily life. Sessions can include practical skills for emotional regulation alongside deeper reflection about values and purpose.
Background and approach
George also helps people facing grief, identity questions related to LGBT issues, and struggles with addiction or compulsive behaviors. He pays attention to intimacy-related concerns, body image, and communication problems that affect close relationships. Career stress, caregiver strain, and first responder issues are part of his caseload as well.
His approach blends client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based work. He uses questioning and feedback to help people test new behaviors and notice what keeps them stuck. Jungian and existential ideas inform conversations about meaning, mortality, and personal growth.
George holds an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor credential and also has an MBA. He offers sessions in English and provides video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging formats. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to pair someone with the right schedule and format.

Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns. It helps people understand why they respond strongly in certain situations and build different ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and understood first. That kind of listening often makes it easier to try new behaviors and talk about painful topics.Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will try methods that match the issue at hand and adjust the plan if something isn’t helpful.
Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people read facial cues and hold longer conversations. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick reflections, between-session support, or when typing helps people organize thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
