About Richard
Richard Hull is a counsellor who focuses on helping people untangle overwhelming emotions and regain direction. He introduces himself plainly and offers a steady space where clients can speak without pressure. Sessions are 45 minutes long and start with a short review of the week to decide what matters most that day.
He listens closely and asks questions that help surface patterns and connections. Richard uses straightforward reflections and occasional practical ideas to help people respond differently to life’s challenges. He aims to be kind and honest while keeping clear boundaries.
Richard combines a client-centred attitude with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness. That means he centres the person’s experience while also offering ways to notice thoughts, test assumptions and practise new responses to difficult feelings. He also draws on Internal Family Systems ideas to look at different parts of the self when that is relevant.
People often use sessions to talk through anxiety, depression, relationship and family strains, grief, struggles with self-esteem, and issues around purpose or identity. He also supports those dealing with sleep or eating difficulties, parenting strain, anger and coping with major life changes.
Richard is a member of the BACP, has three years of experience, and practises in the United Kingdom. Therapy may lead to short-term problem solving or a longer course of work, depending on what each person needs and wants.
How these approaches guide online work
Richard blends client-centred ways of working with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness. Client-centred therapy involves listening deeply and following the client’s lead, helping people feel heard and understood while they make sense of their own experience. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to calm the mind and steady emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Richard aims to collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He will check in about what feels useful and adjust the mix of listening, practical exercises and reflective work as sessions progress.
The practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions around work and family life and reducing travel time. Because the profile does not specify available session formats, confirm the current options before booking. Conversations online can still include review of the week, guided mindfulness exercises, and homework or short practices to try between sessions, all designed to fit into everyday routines.
