I'm based in Chancery Lane (London, UK) on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.  I work in-person and online.  My availability varies, so please email to find out more.

Hi, I’m Richard — an integrative psychotherapist based in Chancery Lane, Central London, and online.

I work with men who want to better understand themselves and improve their mental health.  Clients often come to me to explore anxiety, depression, self-esteem, stress, sex, and relationship issues — both personal and professional.  Together, we examine what’s causing stress in your life today and how earlier experiences might contribute, supporting you to build resilience, insight, and lasting change.

My integrative approach draws from several therapeutic models — including relational, psychodynamic, and CBT — to create a style of therapy that is flexible, collaborative, and tailored to you.

Whether you’re struggling with overwhelm, disconnection, or difficulty expressing emotion, therapy can help you make sense of what’s happening and move toward a more grounded, confident version of yourself.

Drop me a line to arrange an introductory conversation.

Many men experience periods of stress, anxiety, or low mood, but find it difficult to talk about what’s going on.  Overwhelming emotions can lead to withdrawal or isolation, increasing loneliness and creating distance in relationships — both personally and professionally.

Therapy offers space to reduce stress and gain perspective.  Together, we can explore what’s happening right now and how past experiences or self-beliefs may be shaping your reactions.  I help men develop emotional resilience, clearer self-understanding, and healthier ways of relating to others — at work, in relationships, and within themselves.

I'm an integrative psychotherapist based in London and online, trained at The Minster Centre, one of the UK’s leading institutes for counselling and psychotherapy.  Before retraining, I worked in photojournalism, TV production, and marketing, which deepened my understanding of communication, identity, and confidence.

I’ve also volunteered with Terrence Higgins Trust, Stonewall, and London Friend, experiences that continue to inform my LGBTQ+-affirming, inclusive practice and commitment to helping clients find and use their voice.

I offer a free online introductory chat so you can ask questions, share what’s brought you to therapy, and get a sense of how I work.  This first meeting helps us explore what you’d like to focus on — whether that’s managing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship issues, or questions about identity and sexuality — and whether we feel we’d work well together.

During our conversation, I’ll explain how sessions are structured and what you can expect from the therapeutic process.  Many clients say this first chat helps them feel more at ease and clear about what they want from therapy.

If you decide to go ahead, we’ll agree a regular time to meet — either in person near Chancery Lane, London, or online — for a 50-minute session, at £80 per session.  

I work with men from all backgrounds — straight, gay, and queer — to help them understand themselves better, build resilience, and create meaningful change.  My practice is LGBTQ+-affirming, professional, and confidential.

Feel free to get in touch to arrange your free introductory chat.  I’ll reply promptly, and we can schedule a time that suits you.
