About Raymond
Raymond Guddah offers a practical, interactive therapy style rooted in psychodynamic thinking and informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. He is a BACP member and brings 15 years of experience in community, residential rehab and mental health settings. Raymond uses respectful, compassionate listening and works with people to build clearer goals and plans.
He helps with stress, anxiety and depression, and supports people facing addictions including process addictions such as porn, exercise and gambling.
Background and approach
He also works with issues around relationships, intimacy, jealousy and anger. Other areas of focus include grief, bipolar, ADHD, seasonal affective disorder and compassion fatigue. Raymond’s background includes international work with clients from Europe, North America and Australasia, combined with long experience in UK services.
That range has shaped a practical approach where talking leads to steps you can try between sessions. He will aim to help you notice patterns and test small changes to reduce distress. Sessions are conversational and collaborative.
He draws on psychodynamic ideas to understand longer-standing patterns, and uses CBT techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies may be used to build motivation and set achievable goals. People who choose Raymond often want a mix of exploring life history and getting concrete skills.
He encourages self-efficacy and works with each person to create a treatment plan that fits their needs and pace.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy itself. Raymond will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He tailors the balance between exploring background material and setting short-term goals, so the work feels collaborative and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different situations. Video calls let you use visual cues and more natural conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a lunch break. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit shorter check-ins, ongoing notes, or times when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and fit counselling around work, travel and daily life.
