About Miles
Miles Dorfman is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of clinical experience. He works with common concerns such as anxiety, stress, depression, ADHD, relationships, self-esteem and coping with life changes.
He describes a research-driven approach that treats each person as part of a wider system. Sessions focus on identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts while also looking at practical parts of daily life that can be changed. That mix aims to combine thinking work with real-world adjustments.
In practice, Miles helps people name specific patterns that cause distress. He then works with them to test and shift those patterns in manageable steps. Conversations are direct and practical, with an emphasis on figuring out what can be changed now.
He pays attention to issues that often sit alongside anxiety and relationship concerns, such as attachment difficulties, avoidance, commitment worries, control issues, isolation and feelings of emptiness. He also addresses practical life pressures like career stress, midlife questions and problems with concentration.
Miles uses research evidence to guide sessions rather than a fixed script. He and the person in therapy set goals and try simple strategies to see what helps. The aim is steady, understandable progress rather than sudden fixes.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are not currently accepted.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Miles draws on evidence-based techniques that focus on how thoughts, feelings and behaviour connect. Cognitive methods involve identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts, then trying small behavioural experiments to see what changes. This approach can support common worries like social anxiety or persistent negative thinking.He also uses behavioural strategies that focus on changing everyday routines and actions. These techniques can help with stress, concentration problems and motivation by breaking tasks into smaller steps and building new habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Miles will discuss which methods fit your situation and goals, and adjust them based on what helps. That means trying practical steps, reviewing results together, and choosing what to continue.
Confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people use online sessions to continue steady progress while balancing work and other commitments.
