About me and my therapy practice
Hello I'm Richard, an integrative therapist based in Chancery Lane (London) and online.
I can help you improve your self-understanding and build effective coping mechanisms. Some of the issues I work with include self-esteem, anxiety, personal and work relationship issues, sexuality, burn out, and loss.
I regularly work with men - straight and queer - and the particular issues they face.
I have a two-pronged approach: helping to relieve distress in the 'now', but also exploring the past to better understand the root cause.
Being an 'integrative' therapist means I draw from a toolkit of different approaches (like relational, psychodynamic, and CBT) which enables me to provide a service that fits you.
Practice description
I have a two-pronged approach: working to alleviate your distress in the 'now', and looking to the past to explore its origins. I find that's more effective for longer-term change.
I can help with self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationships, intimacy, burn out, boarding school syndrome.
I often work with men - straight and queer - to explore blocks to living the life you want.
Maybe your personal or work relationships aren’t how you want them to be. Maybe you want to better understand why you behave in certain ways. I can help you challenge unhelpful self-beliefs and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others.
I graduated from the UK’s leading institute for counselling and psychotherapy, The Minster Centre.
I hold a Masters in photojournalism, and worked in TV production and charity marketing, so understand the importance of empowering people to find and use their voice.
I’ve volunteered as photographer and journalist for THT (Terrence Higgins Trust) and Stonewall. I was also a trustee of London Friend.
My first session
I offer a free online chat to discuss your objectives for therapy, and answer any questions you may have.
After that, it’s £80 per 50-minute session.
Feel free to get in touch, I'll get back as quickly as I can.
