About Richard
Counsellor (BACP), 17 years' experience. Richard Stafford helps people with stress, anxiety, relationships, grief and self-esteem using a client-centred way of working. He offers one-to-one sessions in English and accepts international clients.
Richard listens first and then works alongside people to sort out practical problems. He focuses on what a person is finding hard right now and helps them talk through feelings and choices. Sessions aim to be straightforward and down to earth, not full of jargon.
He has supported people through bereavement and loss, workplace strain, addiction concerns and relationship breakdown. He also helps with anger, sleeping problems, parenting strain and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. Additional areas he regularly addresses include guilt, forgiveness, feelings of isolation and questions about life purpose.
Richard uses Client-Centred Therapy, which places the person’s experience at the centre of the work. That means the conversation is shaped around what the client brings, rather than a fixed programme. The focus is on listening, reflection and helping people find their own solutions over time.
His background of 17 years in practice means he has worked with a wide range of everyday difficulties. Sessions are held in English and structured around the issues the person wants to tackle. Before booking people are asked to confirm current session options and practical arrangements.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the online options button. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Client-centred approaches and online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective. The counsellor listens, reflects and follows what the client brings to the session. This approach can help with grief, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and stress by giving space to make sense of feelings and choices.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Richard will discuss what is helpful and adapt sessions around a person's needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together rather than imposed by a fixed programme.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Others value being able to meet from a quieter setting or to avoid camera use if that helps them engage. Registered or accredited professionals can offer a range of ways to meet; discuss practical arrangements and session length when you complete the matching questionnaire to find what fits your life.
