About George

George Dymiotis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. He draws on two decades of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and relationship or parenting concerns. He speaks English and Greek.

He offers sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, and he works with international clients when that fits the situation. He uses a client-centered stance that keeps the person’s goals in focus.

Background and approach

That means conversations start from what matters most to the person and move at a comfortable pace. George aims to build trust and a respectful relationship so people can speak openly about what is hard. He combines practical strategies with mindfulness and acceptance-based ideas.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and mindfulness techniques show up in sessions as tools to manage emotions and change unhelpful patterns. George tailors which tools are used to each person’s needs. Sessions often center on building coping skills that can be used every day.

He helps people practice new ways of handling stress, improving communication, and making changes that feel realistic. The work focuses on skills people can carry into life outside of therapy. George expects therapy to be a collaboration.

He listens, offers straightforward feedback, and adjusts plans based on progress. To begin, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing concrete skills to change them, which can help with depression, anxiety, and some eating or addiction concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm, and it pairs well with other approaches when emotions feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. George works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and what seems to help. Sessions may mix techniques so the plan can change as progress is made.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into daily life. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from home, while phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexible ways to check in. These options can reduce travel time and let people use different formats depending on their needs and schedule.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
