About me
Hi I’m Richard, a psychotherapist specialising in working with men. I'm based in Chancery Lane, London Bridge, and online. I currently have limited availability for new clients.
I can help with overwhelm, anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, sex/sexuality, dating, family issues, stuckness, and work stress.
Many men seek therapy when they feel stressed, overwhelmed, or uncertain about relationships, work, or life direction. I provide a confidential space to talk openly, help you gain greater understanding of what might be affecting your responses, increase clarity around what you want, and develop practical ways of moving forward.
My clients come from across ages, relationship status, sexualities, and professions.
Getting started
Email me to schedule a free 30 minute chat to discuss what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. It’s also good opportunity to ask me any questions you might have.
Where I work
I work in central London, EC4A, close to Chancery Lane, City Thameslink, Farringdon, Holborn, Blackfriars, and St Paul's stations. Thursday evenings I work in SE1, close to London Bridge, Southwark, and Waterloo. I also offer online sessions to provide flexibility for my clients.
The therapeutic relationship
People often stay with me long-term, developing a trusting relationship that supports the work. Many return during life transitions, seeking further guidance from someone who already knows them well.
Training, qualifications & experience
I’m a Central London and online-based psychotherapist (BACP, UKCP) offering tailored and practical support for men navigating anxiety, self-worth, relationships, sex/sexuality, and work issues.
My integrative, practical approach draws from a variety of modalities, allowing me to adapt to your unique needs. My practice is sexually-informed, which means I work with sexual issues including unreliable erections, premature ejaculation, opening up a relationship, exploring kink, shame, and navigating desire differences in a relationship. I offer a relaxed, confidential, non-judgmental space where you can speak and explore openly.
Before qualifying from The Minster Centre, one of the UK’s leading psychotherapy training centres, I worked in marketing, photojournalism, and TV production.
I've volunteered with Mind, Stonewall, and Terrence Higgins Trust, and was a trustee for London Friend.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
