About Miles Dorfman

Miles Dorfman is a BACP-credentialed therapist working in the United Kingdom with three years of clinical experience. He supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including ADHD/ADD, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, issues with motivation and concentration, workplace and career challenges, and goals for self-development and lifestyle optimisation. He also focuses on attachment issues, avoidant personality patterns, commitment and communication problems, feelings of emptiness, and challenges such as jealousy, guilt and shame, and impulsivity.

His approach is research-driven and collaborative, treating each person as a system shaped by thoughts, habits, relationships and environment. In practice he works to uncover, challenge and dissolve unhelpful cognitions while identifying aspects of a client’s current life that can be changed. Together with clients he develops practical strategies to move forward, balancing insight with actionable steps. He aims to offer therapy with respect, sensitivity and compassion, and acknowledges that taking the first step toward support often takes real courage. Miles encourages those beginning therapy to recognise that seeking help is a meaningful start on the path to change.

Evidence-informed approaches and flexible online care

Cognitive work is a core part of Miles’ practice. This involves identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts and beliefs, then building practical skills and new habits to reduce anxiety, improve mood and support concentration and motivation. It is useful for concerns such as anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and depression.

Miles also uses attachment-informed and relational perspectives to explore how early patterns and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour. This helps with relationship difficulties, commitment and communication problems, feelings of emptiness, and patterns linked to avoidance or impulsivity.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Miles works collaboratively with each person to identify which techniques fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting methods as understanding grows and progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Sessions can take place by video call or phone, or through live chat and text-based messaging, allowing people to access support from home, around work schedules, or when travel is difficult. For many, these options make it easier to attend regularly and to integrate therapy into everyday life while working with registered professionals and therapists who tailor the approach to individual circumstances.
