Rick is extremely professional and has really helped me unpick and understand things that have happen in my past and help frame how this affects how I react to things now. Very much recommend.
More about Rick
- 3 years' experience

- BACP
I am a qualified, BACP registered integrative therapist offering LGBTQ+ affirmative online counselling and psychotherapy to individual adults.
I have experience supporting people with a wide range of issues, including: anxiety, depression, relationships, gender & sexuality, stress, trauma, and feeling stuck or lost.
My approach is caring, professional, and down to earth. Life can be challenging - if you want support and a place to work through things, I am here for you.
I welcome clients from all backgrounds. I specialise in working with people who are LGBTQ+ and/or have diverse relationship styles. I am neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, sex-positive, and kink-knowledgable. None of these subjects are requirements for working with me, but my experience is there if you need it!
I am trained in an integrative approach to psychotherapeutic counselling. This means that I have studied a range of different types of counselling and may draw from these to work with you in the way that best suits your needs.
The core of my approach is person-centred. This means I am non-judgemental, accepting, and believe that you are the person who knows yourself best, even if you may currently feel lost or stuck in life. I will not tell you what to do, instead, I believe in empowering and supporting you to navigate your situation and reach towards an outcome which is authentic and healing for you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Overall rating:
Rick is a good and kind listener and provide kind and safe support.
Rick is extremely professional and has really helped me unpick and understand things that have happen in my past and help frame how this affects how I react to things now. Very much recommend.
So far, I had two online sessions with Rick. I feel that I am heard well and understood. I think that Rick is guiding me to a right direction and gives me suggestions (rather than requesting those). I think that that approach is working well for me.
