A Really Insightful Therapy Experience

Really get to know you

My outlook towards therapy is really uncomplicated: We explore your past to understand your present to make way for a better future.

I like to work with some depth in what is called a Psychodynamic way, which is the oldest and most established form of therapy.

Psycho = Mind. Dynamic = Movement. We do some movement of the mind.

From years of my own personal and professional experience, therapy is ‘that’ space for you to really get to know you.

My ‘method’

Insightful therapy

We work with some depth, uncovering patterns and emotions. Healing begins with insight and awareness. Together, we bring awareness to the things you are unaware of.

My silence is your space

I listen without judgement. My silence is your space. Your pain is our starting point. Therapy is our trusting relationship that we co-create and our relationship ultimately heals.

Pain isn't the enemy

It’s the catalyst for change. We come to therapy because we’re suffering. So instead of perpetuating your own suffering - Let's transform your suffering into growth. Because the only constant is change.

Trauma is buried…

But, it’s buried alive. Healing is messy, uncomfortable and painful. Together, we will navigate psychological wounds, unresolved conflicts and buried emotions. Enabling us to experience, resolve and accept reality. So we can move on.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY ABOUT WORKING WITH ME

Kind words

 “Rick, Thank you for all that you've done working with me. I think getting to discuss things with you was truly so healing and helped me develop my emotional intuition more. For that, I cannot thank you enough”

“Rick has been incredibly supportive and understanding throughout our sessions. His professionalism and empathy have created a safe space for me to explore my thoughts and feelings. I highly recommend Rick to anyone seeking compassionate and effective online therapy”

“Over the past few months Rick and I worked together to tackle lots of historic issues that had continued to effect my life right up until I began therapy! He taught me a great deal about acceptance. The whole process was a real pleasure and has left me in a position I could not have imagined 6 months ago. For that I cannot thank him enough”

Mind, body, soul, spirit and the symbolic

Through our work together we come to see symptoms as manifestations of reactions to adversity and our work re-conceptualises and transcends these symptoms. Breakdowns are breakthroughs and our triggers are portals to accepting a deeper understanding of our true self.

Vulnerability is strength

Vulnerability is our strength. Here, you are seen and heard. I’m really interested in helping you to discover your own personal meaning in your life experiences, memories, dreams, hopes and desires.

You are so much more than your name, religion, job title, possessions, thoughts and opinions of others, including your family, and you are more than your adaptive self as a result of your history.

Beyond the symptoms

I’m not as interested in knowing what's ‘wrong’ with you — as I am in taking the time to learn more about what happened to you and where you are hurting. Where you want to become unstuck and where in your life you want to progress.

The ‘RITE’ way…

A ‘Really Insightful Therapy Experience’ is A ‘Really Interesting Therapy Experience’

Personal symbols

We may consider the past and current times in which we are living, exploring archetypes and personal myths that influence your behaviour and life patterns.

These insights provides a pathway to understanding deep-seated emotional conflicts and complexes. Along with the personal symbols that reveal and conceal your experiences.

Purpose, growth and self-realisation

By focusing on the integration of fragmented parts of the personality, we can lead to greater inner harmony and purpose, personal growth and self realisation.

This type of work is incredibly beneficial for dissociative disorders and OSDD

Integration

These aspects facilitate a therapy experience that is not only insightful and interesting, but allows for integration in achieving a tangible sense of self.

It’s an opportunity to engage with the deeper layers of your psyche in a way that is both meaningful and conducive to personal growth. Empowering you to synthesise these discoveries into a more cohesive and authentic self.

Ancient insights, modern tools

Wisdom meets technology. This is traditional therapy through a modern platform. Freud meets FaceTime! :)

Virtual appointments

Whether via video, text, or phone, I'm here with you. No office walls - just a healing connection, from one human being to another.

Your trusted ally

I’m not here to fix you, I walk beside you, not ahead. Healing is our shared journey.

Remember, you’re not alone…
