About Richard
Richard Hull is a counsellor who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety and life changes. He has three years' experience and works from a practical, down-to-earth place. Richard listens openly and helps clients find clearer direction when things feel overwhelming.
He offers an initial space to explain what’s causing distress and to get it off your chest. Sessions are 45 minutes long and usually begin with a short check-in about the week.
Background and approach
Richard will listen, ask clarifying questions, and point out patterns that might be keeping you stuck. Richard uses straightforward techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and habits. He draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to test thoughts against real life.
He also uses mindfulness to help people slow down and notice what’s happening in the body and mind. He pays attention to relationship and family pressures, issues around fatherhood, and challenges such as addiction, grief and separation. He also supports people dealing with low self-esteem, sleep or eating problems, anger, and feeling isolated or directionless.
Sessions aim to leave clients with practical steps between appointments. That might be small experiments in everyday life, breathing practices to calm a racing mind, or new ways of communicating with others. Richard works collaboratively, helping people regain a sense of control and move towards clearer purpose.

Approaches Richard lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
He also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at unhelpful thoughts and tests them with small practical experiments. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and problems that feel stuck because of repetitive thinking.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different ways of working, and agree collaboratively what feels most helpful. That shared process helps ensure the methods chosen match the person’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are good for face-to-face style conversations, phone sessions suit people with limited bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when writing helps to organise thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or busy days while still getting regular, focused support from a registered BACP counsellor.
