About Richard
Richard Turner, BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom, has 26 years of experience helping people with stress, anxiety and addiction-related concerns. He focuses on practical ways to manage emotions and behaviours. He offers direct, conversational work and draws on several clinical approaches in his practice.
Turner helps people who are struggling with depression, low self-esteem, anger and relationship and intimacy-related issues. He also addresses trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar difficulties, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Additional areas he supports include first responder issues, hoarding, hospice and end-of-life concerns, infidelity, jealousy, obsessions and compulsions, paranoia and personality disorder-related problems.
In sessions he uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Existential Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. That means he combines values-focused work, listening-led exploration and practical thinking tools to notice patterns and try new responses. The work tends to be conversational and goal oriented, with attention to what each person finds important.
People can expect straightforward discussion about current struggles and small steps to test new ways of coping. Turner aims to reduce overwhelm by breaking problems into manageable pieces and checking progress together. He invites people to set goals and to work at a pace that suits them.
To begin, a short online questionnaire and an initial appointment are used to match needs to the style of work. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Please confirm session formats before booking.

How Richard Turner uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values. It often focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and practising committed behaviour change for long-term goals.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking patterns and to build new coping skills for anxiety, depression and compulsive behaviours.
Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and reflective conversation. The therapist offers consistent engagement and helps the person lead the topics of discussion while the counsellor follows and responds to their concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Turner will discuss these methods with each person and decide together which fits their needs, goals and preferences. The choice can change over time as issues shift and progress is reviewed.
Session format details are not listed in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer this flexibility while helping people apply ACT, CBT or client-centred techniques between sessions.
