Richard | Gestalt therapist

Online Counselling & Gestalt therapy

My name is Richard. I am a Gestalt therapist qualifiying in 1999. I have worked in many different setting both employed and self employed. I welcome both individuals and couples for counselling.

I work online via Zoom. This has intensified since Covid-19. I have found it a very good medium for working that can without a doubt create a good close relationship between client and therapist. This can allow deep exploration of emotions and process.

As humans we are very much relational beings, therefore, in my work how we relate to others, ourselves and our environment is very important. I would take history into account and look at what affects this has today. The body is also important has feelings emotions and how we are with ourselves is remembered and held there. Very much holistic.

Gestalt holds that the self is created in relation with the other. That could be people or the environment as a whole. Therefore we change depending on the 'situation' or where we are or who we are with, ie the boss or the children. We can look at all these aspects and determine where we would like to get to. This presuposes that we can create who we would like to be while maintaining a relationship to the other.

If you would like to ask further questions or make an appointment, please contact me.
