About Richard

Richard Hull is a counsellor with three years' experience who focuses on helping people manage anger, stress and relationship strain. He works with clients who feel overwhelmed, directionless or weighed down by life changes. Sessions are patient and practical, giving space to talk and to begin untangling what feels confusing or painful.

He makes time for people to explain how they feel and what causes their distress. Richard listens closely and asks questions that help reveal patterns in thoughts, habits and relationships. This gives a clearer sense of what keeps someone stuck and where to begin making changes.

Richard offers tools and ideas to respond differently to life’s pressures. He may suggest practical strategies between sessions and he checks progress each week. Sessions usually start with a short review of the week and finish by noting what was useful and any steps to take next.

His style is open, straightforward and kind. He aims to create a trusting space while keeping clear professional boundaries. People who prefer a calm, honest and reflective approach often find his way of working helpful.

Richard draws on a mix of talking, practical exercises and mindful noticing to steady thinking when things feel tense. Over time clients can often find more clarity, steadier moods and a stronger sense of direction in life.

How Richard uses different approaches in online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own answers. It is useful for people who need a calm space to talk through feelings and make sense of what matters to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build different responses to stress, anxiety or anger.

Mindfulness Therapy encourages noticing thoughts and bodily reactions with kindness rather than pushing them away. This can help steady a racing mind and reduce reactivity in tense moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify which methods suit their goals and preferences. Together they will try things out and adapt the plan based on what helps most.

If you are considering online sessions, check the available session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when life feels hectic. Registered or accredited professionals use these approaches in remote work to provide regular, practical support that fits everyday life.
