About me
I work in a caring, understanding and kind way to help you find new ways of coping with emotional/mental pain. Having worked at The Priory Hospital as a Therapist I have a wealth of experience to help you recover. I specialise in face to face work as from my experience the client gets a lot more out of it.
I come from a place of the therapeutic relationship is key, however, having worked as part of a multi disciplinary team I have been lucky enough to have worked with different modalities which have greatly enriched my practice.
Initial consultations are by phone & are free of charge with no further obligation. This allows us both to explore your individual needs & to see if we will work well together. Please feel free to contact me either by phone or email & I will come back to you as soon as possible. I work with you as an individual drawing on previous experiences & teachings.
Counselling can be daunting so I work with you at your pace, offering you a space that is non-judgemental, respectful and confidential. Everyone is different, but having a space to talk and actually be heard can be extremely powerful and healing; leading to a greater understanding of yourself & a shift in your emotions & perceptions.
Training, qualifications & experience
Having had a varied business career I decided to change direction and retrain as a counsellor/therapist. My journey began in 2019 and I went back to college and completed my diploma in therapeutic counselling. I have worked in private practice and at The Priory Hospital North London since qualifying.
Having worked at The Priory Hospital in North London as a therapist I have had the privilege of helping clients through extremely difficult times in their lives. I offer a compassionate understanding and non-judgemental space for you to be heard and begin your healing process.
Whether you're just looking for guidance through a difficult situation or you're looking to empower yourself and head in a new direction in life, Richard Lee Therapy can help you achieve your goals. I have practices in South East London, Croydon and the Bromley Borough.
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 National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society
This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. 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.
