About Miles

Miles Dorfman works on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem and life changes using a research-driven practice that treats clients as whole systems. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of clinical experience.

He focuses on unhelpful thoughts and on identifying parts of daily life that can be changed. Sessions include talking through patterns, testing different ways of thinking, and planning practical steps to improve routine and behaviour. This approach aims to make small, achievable changes that add up over time.

His work covers attention and concentration concerns such as ADHD, plus career and workplace stresses. He also helps with confidence, motivation and coping with low mood. Relationship and communication problems are a common focus, including commitment and attachment difficulties.

Miles uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and balances cognitive work with practical life adjustments. He helps people spot where thoughts and habits keep them stuck and then tries out different strategies to shift those patterns. Progress is recorded and reviewed so the work stays focused.

Miles sees therapy as collaborative. He asks questions, offers observations and sets tasks that clients can try between sessions. He practises in the United Kingdom and works in English. To start, clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and remote working

He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thoughts and on practical changes in day-to-day life. One common approach is cognitive work to identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns; this helps with anxiety, low mood and self-esteem by making thinking habits easier to change. Another strand involves behavioural and lifestyle adjustments, which means identifying small routines or situations that can be shifted and planning concrete steps to test those changes, useful for concentration, motivation and work-related stress.

Finding the most suitable approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options with the client, review what helps, and adjust methods based on the client’s needs and goals. This is a collaborative process that aims to match techniques to the person rather than apply one fixed method.

Practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting counselling around work and family commitments and reducing travel time. If you need to book, please confirm which session formats are offered before arranging meetings, since the biography does not specify formats. Registered or accredited professionals often offer remote options that make attending more feasible for people with busy schedules.
