Hi there. My name is Richard. I'm a BACP accredited counsellor and psychotherapist with a decade of experience in this sector. I have worked for the NHS, in higher education and in private practice. I specialise in major life transitions, depression, anxiety and relationship issues but can and will work with a very broad range of presenting issues. I endeavour to create a containing space for you to explore whatever it is that brings you to therapy now. My integrative training means we can work together to tailor an individual approach that works for you. Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like to give therapy a try. I look forward to hearing from you.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
